Abstract:
Suppose nonparametric regression model to be
yi=
f(
x4)+
εi,
i=1,…,
n.
f(
x) is an unknown nonparametric regression function on 0,1. The kernel estimator of
f(
x) has a smoothing parameter h. Use (CV and GCV criterions to choose the smoothing parameter hrespeetively, an optimal nonparametric kernel estimator is obtained. Assume
εi to be i. i. d. r. v. s., under the condition that the fourth moment of
εi is finite, the chosen kernel estimators and the associated Stein’s estimators are consistent.
