A particular semiparametric model of interest is the generalized partial linear model (GPLM) which allows a nonparametric modeling of the influence of the continuous covariables. The paper reviews different estimation procedures based on kernel methods and test procedures on the correct...

The paper gives an introduction to theory and application of multivariate and semiparametric kernel smoothing. Multivariate nonparametric density estimation is an often used pilot tool for examining the structure of data. Regression smoothing helps in investigating the association between...

We consider the problem of estimating the conditional quantile of a time series fYtg at time t given covariates Xt, where Xt can ei- ther exogenous variables or lagged variables of Yt . The conditional quantile is estimated by inverting a kernel estimate of the conditional distribution function,...
