Dimension reduction and variable selection play important roles in high dimensional data analysis. The sparse MAVE, a model-free variable selection method, is a nice combination of shrinkage estimation, Lasso, and an effective dimension reduction method, MAVE (minimum average variance...

Minimum average variance estimation (MAVE, Xia et al. (2002) [29]) is an effective dimension reduction method. It requires no strong probabilistic assumptions on the predictors, and can consistently estimate the central mean subspace. It is applicable to a wide range of models, including time...

When functional data are not homogenous, for example, when there are multiple classes of functional curves in the dataset, traditional estimation methods may fail. In this article, we propose a new estimation procedure for the mixture of Gaussian processes, to incorporate both functional and...

A robust estimation procedure for mixture linear regression models is proposed by assuming that the error terms follow a Laplace distribution. Using the fact that the Laplace distribution can be written as a scale mixture of a normal and a latent distribution, this procedure is implemented by an...

In this article, we first propose a semiparametric mixture of generalized linear models (GLMs) and a nonparametric mixture of GLMs, and then establish identifiability results under mild conditions.
