This paper studies the estimation of a varying-coefficient partially linear regression model which is a generalization of the partially linear regression model and varying-coefficient regression model [Fan and Huang, Manuscript, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, USA, 2002]. We focus on...

In this paper jackknifing technique is examined for functions of the parametric component in a partially linear regression model with serially correlated errors. By deleting partial residuals a jackknife-type estimator is proposed. It is shown that the jackknife-type estimator and the usual...

The authors study a heteroscedastic partially linear regression model and develop an inferential procedure for it. This includes a test of heteroscedasticity, a two-step estimator of the heteroscedastic variance function, semiparametric generalized least-squares estimators of the parametric and...

This paper studies case deletion diagnostics for multilevel models. Using subset deletion, diagnostic measures for identifying influential units at any level are developed for both fixed and random parameters. Two approximate update formulae are derived. The first formula uses one-step...

Varying-coefficient models are useful extension of classical linear models. This paper is concerned with the statistical inference of varying-coefficient regression models with autoregressive errors. By combining the estimated residuals, the smoothly clipped absolute deviation (SCAD) penalty and...

We consider a panel data semiparametric partially linear regression model with an unknown vector [beta] of regression coefficients, an unknown nonparametric function g(·) for nonlinear component, and unobservable serially correlated errors. The correlated errors are modeled by a vector...

Motivated by a practical problem, [Z.W. Cai, P.A. Naik, C.L. Tsai, De-noised least squares estimators: An application to estimating advertising effectiveness, Statist. Sinica 10 (2000) 1231-1243] proposed a new regression model with noised variables due to measurement errors. In this model, the...

We consider a panel data semiparametric partially linear regression model with an unknown parameter vector for the linear parametric component, an unknown nonparametric function for the nonlinear component, and a one-way error component structure which allows unequal error variances...

The growth curve model is a useful tool for studying the growth problems, repeated measurements and longitudinal data. A key point using the growth curve model to fit data is determining the degree of polynomial profile form, choosing suitable explanatory variables, shrinking some regression...

In this paper, we are concerned with the estimating problem of functional coefficient regression models with generated covariates. A new local polynomial estimation is proposed, which is based on error covariance matrix correction. It is shown that the resulting estimators are consistent,...
