Nonparametric M-regression for functional ergodic data

Gheriballah, Abdelkader; Laksaci, Ali; Sekkal, Soumeya - In: Statistics & Probability Letters 83 (2013) 3, pp. 902-908

Let (Xi,Yi)i=1,…,n be a sequence of stationary ergodic processes valued in F×R, where F is a semi-metric space. We consider the problem of estimating the regression function of Yi given Xi by the robust M-estimation method. The principal aim of this work is to prove the almost complete...

Using Bagidis in nonparametric functional data analysis: Predicting from curves with sharp local features

Timmermans, Catherine; Delsol, Laurent; von Sachs, Rainer - In: Journal of Multivariate Analysis 115 (2013) C, pp. 421-444

Our goal is to predict a scalar value or a group membership from the discretized observation of curves with sharp local features that might vary both vertically and horizontally. To this aim, we propose to combine the use of the nonparametric functional regression estimator developed by Ferraty...

Generative models for functional data using phase and amplitude separation

Tucker, J. Derek; Wu, Wei; Srivastava, Anuj - In: Computational Statistics & Data Analysis 61 (2013) C, pp. 50-66

general, functional data contains both phase (or x or horizontal) and amplitude (or y or vertical) variability. Traditional … technique called elastic shape analysis of curves that involves a new mathematical representation of functional data. Then … that ignore phase-amplitude separation. Furthermore, the generative models are applied to classification of functional data …
