Separation of the linear and nonlinear components in additive models based on penalized likelihood has received attention recently. However, it remains unknown whether consistent separation is possible in generalized additive models, and how high dimensionality is allowed. In this article, we...

type="main" xml:id="rssb12066-abs-0001" <title type="main">Summary</title> <p>We consider heteroscedastic regression models where the mean function is a partially linear single-index model and the variance function depends on a generalized partially linear single-index model. We do not insist that the variance function...</p>

We propose the penalized estimator with the smoothly clipped absolute deviation (SCAD) penalty for varying coefficient time series models, which in autoregressive models actually performs lag order selection. Theoretical properties are established. Some numerical examples are also presented.

We consider joint rank and variable selection in multivariate regression. Previously proposed joint rank and variable selection approaches assume that different responses are related to the same set of variables, which suggests using a group penalty on the rows of the coefficient matrix....

Functional data are infinite-dimensional statistical objects which pose significant challenges to both theorists and practitioners. Both parametric and nonparametric regressions have received attention in the functional data analysis literature. However, the former imposes stringent constraints...

Generalized varying coefficient partially linear models are a flexible class of semiparametric models that deal with data with different types of responses. In this paper, we focus on polynomial spline estimator as a computationally easier alternative to the more commonly used local polynomial...

This article develops a mean field variational Bayes approximation algorithm for posterior inferences of the recently proposed partially linear additive models with simultaneous and automatic variable selection and linear/nonlinear component identification abilities. To solve the problem induced...

In this paper, we consider the partially linear single-index models with longitudinal data. We propose the bias-corrected quadratic inference function (QIF) method to estimate the parameters in the model by accounting for the within-subject correlation. Asymptotic properties for the proposed...

We consider penalized singular value decomposition (SVD) for a (noisy) data matrix when the left singular vector has a sparse structure and the right singular vector is a discretized function. Such situations typically arise from spatio-temporal data where only some small spatial regions are...
