Course information

  1. Description:

    Statistics 763 aims to introduce nonparametric function estimation method with roughness penalty. Starting from smoothing splines for univariate data, a unified framework will be developed for flexible model building of multivariate data with both Gaussian and non-Gaussian responses. Mathematical formulation of smoothing splines, reproducing kernel Hilbert space methods, selection of smoothing parameter, computation, and their applications will be treated in detail.

  2. Lecture: MW 2:00PM -3:18PM in Baker Systems Engineering (BE) 188.
  3. Text: Smoothing Spline ANOVA Models, by Chong Gu.
    References : Spline Models for Observational Data by Grace Wahba.
    Nonparametric Regression and Generalized Linear Models by Peter Green and Bernard Silverman.
    The books are on reserve in Science Engineering Library (SEL).
