Existing computationally efficient methods for penalized likelihood GAM fitting employ iterative smoothness selection on working linear models (or working mixed models). Such schemes fail to converge for a non-negligible proportion of…
Semiparametric regression offers a flexible framework for modeling non-linear relationships between a response and covariates. A prime example are generalized additive models where splines (say) are used to approximate non-linear functional…
Nonlinear autoregressive models are very useful for modeling many natural processes, however, the size of the class of these models is large. Functional-coefficient autoregressive models (FCAR) are useful structures for reducing the size of…
