By combining the local polynomial and least squares procedures Fan and Huang （2005） proposed a profile least squares estimator for the parametric component and established its asymptotic normality. We further show that the profile least squares estimator can achieve the law of iterated logarithm. Moreover, we study the estimators of the functions characterizing the non-linear part as well as the error variance. The strong convergence rate and the law of iterated logarithm are derived for them, respectively.展开更多

First, we investigate estimation for varying coefficient partially linear models in which covariates in the nonparametric part are measured with errors. As there would be some spurious covariates in the linear part, a penalized profile least squares estimation is suggested with the assistance from smoothly clipped absolute deviation penalty. However, the estimator is often biased due to the existence of measurement errors, a bias correction is proposed such that the estimation consistency with the oracle property is proved. Second, based on the estimator, a test statistic is constructed to check a linear hypothesis of the parameters and its asymptotic properties are studied. We prove that the existence of measurement errors causes intractability of the limiting null distribution that requires a Monte Carlo approximation and the absence of the errors can lead to a chi-square limit. Furthermore, confidence regions of the parameter of interest can also be constructed. Simulation studies and a real data example are conducted to examine the performance of our estimators and test statistic.展开更多

The estimators of interested regression parameters /3 , and the model error variance σ2, as well as the nonparametric components α（T）, are constructed. Under some regular conditions, we show that the estimators of the unknown vector β and the unknown parameter σ2 are strongly consistent and asymptotically normal and that the estimator of α（T） achieves the optimal strong convergence rate of the usual nonparametric regression. Based on these estimators and asymptotic properties, we propose the VN,p test statistic and empirical log-likelihood ratio statistic for testing serial correlation in the model. The proposed statistics are shown to have asymptotic normal or chi-square distributions under the null hypothesis of no serial correlation. Some simulation studies are conducted to illustrate the finite sample performance of the proposed tests.展开更多

Wong, et al. （2008） proposed the model and gave its estimation by the local linear method. In this paper its inference is addressed. Based on these estimates, the generalized like- lihood ratio test is established. Under the null hypotheses the normalized test statistic follows a x2-distribution asymptotically, with the scale constant and the degrees of freedom being independent of the nuisance param- eters. This is the Wilks phenomenon. Furthermore its asymptotic power is also derived, which achieves the optimal rate of convergence for nonparametric hypotheses testing. A simulation and a real example are used to evaluate the performances of the testing procedures empirically.展开更多

But they only considered the model with time-independent covariate effects. In this paper, rate function of the recurrent event is modeled by a semipaxametric partially linear function which can include the time-varying effects. We propose the method of generalized estimating equations to make inferences about both the time-varying effects and time-independent effects. The large sample properties are established, while extensive simulation studies are carried out to examine the proposed procedures.

Therefore, it is necessary for data analysts to identify these influential observations and assess their impact on various aspects of model fitting. In this paper, one type of modified Cook＇s distances is defined to gauge the influence of one or a set observations on the estimate of the constant coefficient part in partially varying- coefficient models, and the Cook＇s distances are expressed as functions of the corresponding residuals and leverages. Meanwhile, a bootstrap procedure is suggested to derive the reference values for the proposed Cook＇s distances. Some simulations are conducted, and a real-world data set is further analyzed to examine the performance of the proposed method. The experimental results are satisfactory.展开更多

As is well known, commonly used approach to deal with missing data is complete-case data. Combined the idea of complete-case data with a discussion of shrinkage estimation is made on different cluster. In order to avoid the biased results as well as improve the estimation efficiency, this article introduces Group Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (Group Lasso) to semiparametric model. That is to say, the method combines the approach of local polynomial smoothing and the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator. In that case, it can conduct nonparametric estimation and variable selection in a computationally efficient manner. According to the same criterion, the parametric estimators are also obtained. Additionally, for each cluster, the nonparametric and parametric estimators are derived, and then compute the weighted average per cluster as finally estimators. Moreover, the large sample properties of estimators are also derived respectively.展开更多
