Since its introduction in the early 90s, Sliced Inverse Regression (SIR) methodology has evolved adapting to increasingly complex data sets contexts combining linear dimension reduction with non regression. The assumption of dependence response variable respect only a few combinations covariates makes it appealing for many computational and real application aspects. This work proposes an overvi...

By slicing the region of the response (Li, 1991, SIR) and applying local kernel regression (Xia et al., 2002, MAVE) to each slice, a new dimension reduction method is proposed. Compared with the traditional inverse regression methods, e.g. sliced inverse regression (Li, 1991), the new method is free of the linearity condition (Li, 1991) and enjoys much improved estimation accuracy. Compared wit...

Sliced Inverse Regression is a method for reducing the dimension of the explanatory variables x in non-parametric regression problems. Li (1991) discussed a version of this method which begins with a partition of the range of y into slices so that the conditional covariance matrix of x given y can be estimated by the sample covariance matrix within each slice. After that the mean of the conditi...

In order to obtain reference curves for data sets when the covariate is multidimensional, we propose in this paper a new procedure based on dimension-reduction and nonparametric estimation of conditional quantiles. This semiparametric approach combines sliced inverse regression (SIR) and a kernel estimation of conditional quantiles. The asymptotic convergence of the derived estimator is shown. ...

This article concerns the dimension reduction in regression for large dataset. We introduce a new method based on the sliced inverse regression approach, called cluster-based regularized sliced inverse regression. Our method not only keeps the merit of considering both response and predictors information, but also enhances the capability of handling highly correlated variables. It is justified ...

Sliced Inverse Regression (SIR) is an effective method for dimension reduction in high-dimensional regression problems. The original method, however, requires the inversion of the predictors covariance matrix. In case of collinearity between these predictors or small sample sizes compared to the dimension, the inversion is not possible and a regularization technique has to be used. Our approach...

In order to obtain reference curves for data sets when the covariate is multidimensional, we propose a new methodology based on dimension-reduction and nonparametric estimation of conditional quantiles. This semiparametric approach combines sliced inverse regression (SIR) and a kernel estimation of conditional quantiles. The convergence of the derived estimator is shown. By a simulation study, ...

We obtain the maximum likelihood estimator of the central subspace under conditional normality of the predictors given the response. Analytically and in simulations we found that our new estimator can preform much better than sliced inverse regression, sliced average variance estimation and directional regression, and that it seems quite robust to deviations from normality.
