This paper considers the estimation of the long memory parameter in nonparametric regression with strongly correlated errors. The key idea is to minimize a unified mean squared error of long memory parameter to select both kernel bandwidth and the number of frequencies used in exact local Whittle estimation. A unified mean squared error framework is more natural because it provides both goodness of fit and measure of strong dependence. The block bootstrap is applied to evaluate the mean squared error. Finite sample performance using Monte Carlo simulations shows the closest performance to the oracle. The proposed method outperforms existing methods especially when dependency and sample size increase. The proposed method is also illustreated to the volatility of exchange rate between Korean Won for US dollar.

Interval-valued data, a type of symbolic data, is given as an interval in which the observation object is not a single value. It can also occur frequently in the process of aggregating large databases into a form that is easy to manage. Various regression methods for interval-valued data have been proposed relatively recently. In this paper, we introduce a nonparametric regression model using the kernel function and a nonlinear regression model for the interval-valued data. We also propose applying the local linear regression model, one of the nonparametric methods, to the interval-valued data. Simulations based on several distributions of the center point and the range are conducted using each of the methods presented in this paper. Various conditions confirm that the performance of the proposed local linear estimator is better than the others.

In this paper we consider kernel type estimator of the spectral density at a point in the analysis of stationary time series data. The kernel entails choice of smoothing parameter called bandwidth. A data-based bandwidth choice is proposed, and it is obtained by solving an equation similar to Sheather(1986) which relates to the probability density estimation. A Monte Carlo study is done. It reveals that the spectral density estimates using the data-based bandwidths show comparatively good performance.

국소선형회귀모형의 추정량은 좋은 특성을 가지고 있는 추정량으로서 가장 흔히 사용되는 비모수적 회귀모형의 추정량이라고 하겠다. 이러한 국소선형 추정량이 자료가 희박한 구간에서는 심하게 왜곡된 추정결과를 보이는 문제가 있으며, Hall과 Turlach(1997)이 제안한 선형보간법이 이러한 문제에 대한 매우 효과적인 해결방안이라는 것은 잘 알려진 사실이다. 그러나 Hall과 Turlach가 제안한 선형보간법이 이상값에 매우 취약하다는 사실은 아직 지적된 적이 없는 문제이다. 이 논문에서는 이상값의 영향력을 감소시킬 수 있는 수정된 선형보간법에 의한 유사자료의 생성방법을 제안하고, 그 특성을 모의실험을 통하여 기존의 방법과 비교하였다.

커널형 회귀함수의 추정법 중에서 국소 다항회귀 추정법이 가장 우수한 것으로 알려져 있다. 국소다항회귀 추정법에서도 다른 종류의 커널추정량과 마찬가지로 평활량이 중요한 역할을 한다. 특히 회귀함수가 복잡한 구조를 가질 때 변수평활량(variable band-width)을 사용하는 것이 타당할 것이다. 본 연구에서는 완전자료기저(fully automatic, fully data-driven) 변수평활량 선택법을 제안한다. 이 선택법은 편향과 분산의 예비추정에 필요한 평활량을 교차타당성 방법으로 선택하여 MSE를 추정하고 그 값을 최소화하는 평활량을 택하는 것이다. 제안된 방법의 우수성을 모의실험을 통하여 확인하였다. 그리고 제안된 방법은 자료점이 성긴(sparse)부분에서 생길 수 있는 문제점 즉 X'X의 비정칙성(non-singularity)을 해결할 수 있는 방법이라는 데에도 큰 의미가 있다.

In this paper we propose a nonparametric lack of fit test based on the bootstrap method for testing the null parametric linear model by using linear smoothers. Most of existing nonparametric test statistics are based on the residuals. Our test is based on the centered bootstrap residuals. Power performance of proposed bootstrap lack of fit test is investigated via Monte carlo simulation.

Sample entropy (Vasicek, 1976) has poor performance, and several nonparametric entropy estimators have been proposed as alternatives. In this paper, we consider a piecewise uniform density function based on quantiles, which enables us to evaluate entropy in each interval, and study the poor performance of the sample entropy in terms of the poor estimation of lower and upper quantiles. Then we propose some improved entropy estimators by simply modifying the quantile estimators, and compare their performances with some existing estimators.

We consider an estimation of discontinuous variance function in nonparametric heteroscedastic random design regression model. We first propose estimators of a change point and jump size in variance function and then construct an estimator of entire variance function. We examine the rates of convergence of these estimators and give results on their asymptotics. Numerical work reveals that the effectiveness of change point analysis in variance function estimation is quite significant.

Validity of the stationary bootstrap of Politis and Romano (1994) is proved for U-statistics under strong mixing. Weak and strong consistencies are established for the stationary bootstrap of U-statistics. The theory is applied to a symmetry test which is a U-statistic regarding a kernel density estimator. The theory enables the bootstrap confidence intervals of the means of the U-statistics. A Monte-Carlo experiment for bootstrap confidence intervals confirms the asymptotic theory.
