We investigate a nonparametric panel model with heterogeneous regression functions. In a variety of applications, it is natural to impose a group structure on the regression curves. Specifically, we may suppose that the observed individuals can be grouped into a number of classes whose members...

We study a longitudinal data model with nonparametric regression functions that may vary across the observed subjects. In a wide range of applications, it is natural to assume that not every subject has a completely different regression function. We may rather suppose that the observed subjects...

It is known that semiparametric time series regression is often used without checking its suitability and compactness. In theory, this may result in dealing with an unnecessarily complicated model. In practice, one may encounter the computational difficulty caused by the spareness of the data....

In this paper, we consider additive stochastic nonparametric regression models. By approximating the nonparametric components by a class of orthogonal series and using a generalized cross-validation criterion, an adaptive and simultaneous estimation procedure for the nonparametric components is...

This paper considers a nonparametric time series regression model with a nonstationary regressor. We construct a nonparametric test for testing whether the regression is of a known parametric form indexed by a vector of unknown parameters. We establish the asymptotic distribution of the proposed...

We introduce a new method for the estimation of discount functions, yield curves and forward curves from government issued coupon bonds. Our approach is non-parametric and does not assume particular functional form for the discount function although we do show how to impose various restrictions...
