This paper considers using asymmetric kernels in local linear smoothing to estimate a regression curve with bounded support. The asymmetric kernels are either beta kernels if the curve has a compact support or gamma kernels if the curve is bounded from one end only. While possessing the standard...

An extended generalised partially linear single-index (EGPLSI) model provides flexibility of a partially linear model and a single-index model. Furthermore, it also allows for the analysis of the shape-invariant specification. Especially, since it does not only provide the flexibility of a...

Time series analysis is a tremendous research area in statistics and econometrics. As remarked in a review by Howell Tong in 2001, for about 100 years up to 2001 Biometrika (alone) published over 400 papers on the subject. [Tong (2001)] Furthermore, in the review, Howell Tong is able break down...
