Asymptotic properties in semiparametric partially linear regression models for functional data

We consider the semiparametric partially linear regression models with mean function XTβ + g(z), where X and z are functional data. The new estimators of β and g(z) are presented and some asymptotic results are given. The strong convergence rates of the proposed estimators are obtained. In our estimation, the observation number of each subject will be completely flexible. Some simulation study is conducted to investigate the finite sample performance of the proposed estimators.     

Efficient estimation of varying coefficient seemly unrelated regression model

In this paper, we propose a class of varying coefficient seemingly unrelated regression models, in which the errors are correlated across the equations. By applying the series approximation and taking the contemporaneous correlations into account, we propose an efficient generalized least squares series estimation for the unknown coefficient functions. The consistency and asymptotic normality of the resulting estimators are established. In comparison with the ordinary/east squares ones, the proposed estimators are more efficient with smaller asymptotical variances. Some simulgtlon＇studies and a real application are presented to demonstrate the finite sample performance of the proposed methods. In addition, based on a B-spline approximation, we deduce the asymptotic bias and variance of the proposed estimators.     

One-step estimation for varying coefficient models

A one-step method is proposed to estimate the unknown functions in the varying coefficient models, in which the unknown functions admit different degrees of smoothness. In this method polynomials of different orders are used to approximate unknown functions with different degrees of smoothness. As only one minimization operation is employed, the required computation burden is much less than that required by the existing two-step estimation method. It is shown that the one-step estimators also achieve the optimal convergence rate. Moreover this property is obtained under conditions milder than that imposed in the two-step estimation method. More importantly, as only one minimization operation is employed, the full asymptotic properties, not only the asymptotic bias and variance, but also the asymptotic distributions of the estimators can be derived. The asymptotic distribution results will play a key role for making statistical inference.     

Efficient estimation for semiparametric varying- coefficient partially linear regression models with current status data

This article considers a semiparametric varying-coefficient partially linear regression model with current status data. The semiparametric varying-coefficient partially linear regression model which is a generalization of the partially linear regression model and varying-coefficient regression model that allows one to explore the possibly nonlinear effect of a certain covariate on the response variable. A Sieve maximum likelihood estimation method is proposed and the asymptotic properties of the proposed estimators are discussed. Under some mild conditions, the estimators are shown to be strongly consistent. The convergence rate of the estimator for the unknown smooth function is obtained and the estimator for the unknown parameter is shown to be asymptotically efficient and normally distributed. Simulation studies are conducted to examine the small-sample properties of the proposed estimates and a real dataset is used to illustrate our approach.

Reducing component estimation for varying coefficient models with longitudinal data

Varying-coefficient models with longitudinal observations are very useful in epidemiology and some other practical fields.In this paper,a reducing component procedure is proposed for es- timating the unknown functions and their derivatives in very general models,in which the unknown coefficient functions admit different or the same degrees of smoothness and the covariates can be time- dependent.The asymptotic properties of the estimators,such as consistency,rate of convergence and asymptotic distribution,are derived.The asymptotic results show that the asymptotic variance of the reducing component estimators is smaller than that of the existing estimators when the coefficient functions admit different degrees of smoothness.Finite sample properties of our procedures are studied through Monte Carlo simulations.     

Mixtures of semiparametric varying coefficient models for longitudinal data with nonignorable dropout

Informative dropout often arise in longitudinal data. In this paper we propose a mixture model in which the responses follow a semiparametric varying coefficient random effects model and some of the regression coefficients depend on the dropout time in a non-parametric way. The local linear version of the profile-kernel method is used to estimate the parameters of the model. The proposed estimators are shown to be consistent and asymptotically normal, and the finite performance of the estimators is evaluated by numerical simulation.
