Demonstration of nonlinear nonparametric regression technique using R-package "NNS" and comparison to kernel based regression methods in goodness of fit, partial derivative estimation, and out-of-sample extrapolation

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...

We present a fundamentally unique method of nonparametric regression using clusters and test it against classically established methods. We compare two nonlinear regression estimation packages called ‘NNS', Viole (NNS: nonlinear nonparametric statistics, 2016), and ‘np', Hayfield and Racine...

We define a dynamic and self-adjusting mixture of Gaussian Graphical Models to cluster financial returns, and provide a new method for extraction of nonparametric estimates of dynamic alphas (excess return) and betas (to a choice set of explanatory factors) in a multivariate setting. This...
