In the semiparametric additive hazard regression model of McKeague and Sasieni (1994), the hazard contributions of some covariates are allowed to change over time, without parametric restrictions (Aalen model), while the contributions of other covariates are assumed to be constant. In this...

We consider an additive model with second order interaction terms. It is shown how the components of this model can be estimated using marginal integration, and the asymptotic distribution of the estimators is derived. Moreover, two test statistics for testing the presence of interactions are...

This methodological paper discusses the application of "adaptive" non-parametric procedures for estimating regression functions or contrasts in situations with quantitative regressands and qualitative regressors. We propose to apply an adaptive regressogram, that is the selection of a...

A recipe is provided for producing, from a sequence of procedures in the Gaussian regression model, an asymptotically equivalent sequence in the density estimation model with i. i. d. observations. The recipe is, to put it roughly, to calculate square roots of normalised frequencies over certain...

This paper proposes a nonparametric test of the non-convexity of a smooth regression function based on least squares or hybrid splines. By a simple formulation of the convexity hypothesis in the class of all polynomial cubic splines, we build a test which has an asymptotic size equal to the...

Models are studied where the response Y and covariates X, T are assumed to fulfill E(Y|X; T) = G{XT β + α + m1(T1) + … + md(Td)}. Here G is a known (link) function, β is an unknown parameter, and m1, …, md are unknown functions. In particular, we consider additive binary response models...

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...

We consider the partially linear model relating a response Y to predictors (X,T) with mean function XT β + g(T) when the T's are measured with additive error. We derive an estimator of β by modification local-likelihood method. The resulting estimator of β is shown to be asymptotically...

We consider the problem of estimating quantile regression coefficients in errors-in-variables models. When the error variables for both the response and the manifest variables have a joint distribution that is spherically symmetric but otherwise unknown, the regression quantile estimates based...
