A procedure for testing equality across nonparametric regressions is proposed. The procedure allows for any dimension of the explanatory variables and for any number of subsamples. We consider the case of random explanatory variables and allow the designs of the regressors and the number of...

The problem of approximating a general regression function m(x) = E (Y IX = x) is addressed. As in the case of the c1assical L2-type projection pursuit regression considered by Hall (1989), we propose to approximate m(x) through a regression of Y given an index, that is a unidimensional...
