Bernstein polynomial estimation provides a robust nonparametric technique for approximating both density and distribution functions. Based on the properties of Bernstein polynomials, which uniformly ...
Mathematics of Computation, Vol. 34, No. 150 (Apr., 1980), pp. 441-463 (23 pages) Constructive proofs and several generalizations of approximation results of J. H. Bramble and S. R. Hilbert are ...
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 ...
