The varying-coefficient single-index model has two distinguishing features: partially linear varying-coefficient functions and a single-index structure. This paper proposes a nonparametric method based on smoothing splines for estimating varying-coefficient functions and an unknown link...

Case-control data are often used in medical-related applications, and most studies have applied parametric logistic regression to analyze such data. In this study, we investigated a semiparametric model for the analysis of case-control data by relaxing the linearity assumption of risk factors by...
