This paper concerns semiparametric regression models with additive nonparametric components and high dimensional parametric components under sparsity assumptions. To achieve simultaneous model selection for both nonparametric and parametric parts, we introduce a penalty that combines the...

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...

Penalized likelihood method can be used for hazard estimation with lifetime data that are right-censored, left-truncated, and possibly with covariates. In this article, we are concerned with more scalable computation of the method and with the derivation and assessment of certain interval...

Nonparametric smoothing under shape constraints has recently received much well-deserved attention. Powerful methods have been proposed for imposing a single shape constraint such as monotonicity and concavity on univariate functions. In this paper, we extend the monotone kernel regression...

This paper considers the development of spatially adaptive smoothing splines for the estimation of a regression function with nonhomogeneous smoothness across the domain. Two challenging issues arising in this context are the evaluation of the equivalent kernel and the determination of a local...

In the last ten years, there has been increasing interest and activity in the general area of partially linear regression smoothing in statistics. Many methods and techniques have been proposed and studied. This monograph hopes to bring an up-to-date presentation of the state of the art of...

In this article, we study a partially linear single-index model for longitudinal data under a general framework which includes both the sparse and dense longitudinal data cases. A semiparametric estimation method based on the combination of the local linear smoothing and generalized estimation...
