Smoothing Splines: Methods and Applications covers basic smoothing spline models, including polynomial, periodic, spherical, thin-plate, L-, and partial splines, as well as more advanced models, such as smoothing spline ANOVA, extended and generalized smoothing spline ANOVA, vector spline, nonparametric nonlinear regression, semiparametric regression, and semiparametric mixed-effects models. It also presents methods for model selection and inference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe book provides unified frameworks for estimation, inference, and software implementation by using the general forms of nonparametric\/semiparametric, linear\/nonlinear, and fixed\/mixed smoothing spline models. The theory of reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) is used to present various smoothing spline models in a unified fashion. Although this approach can be technical and difficult, the author makes the advanced smoothing spline methodology based on RKHS accessible to practitioners and students. He offers a gentle introduction to RKHS, keeps theory at a minimum level, and explains how RKHS can be used to construct spline models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSmoothing Splines offers a balanced mix of methodology, computation, implementation, software, and applications. It uses R to perform all data analyses and includes a host of real data examples from astronomy, economics, medicine, and meteorology. The codes for all examples, along with related developments, can be found on the book's web page.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chapman \u0026 Hall\/CRC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45507192029263,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":8190.0,"currency_code":"TWD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.tw\/products\/9781420077551","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Taiwan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
