It is shown that the pseudo empirical wavelet coefficients corresponding to the significant explanatory variables in the regression models are clearly larger than those nonsignificant ones, on the basis of which a procedure is developed to select variables in regression models. The coefficients of the models are also estimated. All estimators are proved to be consistent.展开更多

It is shown that the wavelet coefficients of the data have significantly large absolute values across fine scale levels near the jump points.

Consider the heteroscedastic regression model Yi = g（xi） ＋ σiei, 1 ≤ i ≤ n, where σi^2 = f（ui）, here （xi, ui） being fixed design points, g and f being unknown functions defined on [0, 1], ei being independe...Consider the heteroscedastic regression model Yi = g（xi） ＋ σiei, 1 ≤ i ≤ n, where σi^2 = f（ui）, here （xi, ui） being fixed design points, g and f being unknown functions defined on [0, 1], ei being independent random errors with mean zero. Assuming that Yi are censored randomly and the censored distribution function is known or unknown, we discuss the rates of strong uniformly convergence for wavelet estimators of g and f, respectively. Also, the asymptotic normality for the wavelet estimators of g is investigated.展开更多
