Polynomial Regression and Other Variants: Polynomial regression conveys the relationship between the dependent and independent variables as an nth degree polynomial—for example, ax².

We investigate the extension of the nonparametric regression technique of local polynomial fitting with a kernel weight to generalized linear models and quasi-likelihood contexts. In the ordinary ...

A nonparametric function estimation method called SUPPORT ("Smoothed and Unsmoothed Piecewise-Polynomial Regression Trees") is described. The estimate is typically made up of several pieces, each ...
