<Para ID="Par1">We motivate this paper by showing through Monte Carlo simulation that ignoring the skewness of the response variable distribution in non-linear regression models may introduce biases on the parameter estimates and/or on the estimation of the associated variability measures. Then, we propose a...</para>

The paper deals with generalized functional regression. The aim is to estimate the influence of covariates on observations, drawn from an exponential distribution. The link considered has a semiparametric expression: if we are interested in a functional influence of some covariates, we authorize...
