NNS

Nonlinear nonparametric statistics using partial moments. Partial moments are the elements of variance and asymptotically approximate the area of f(x). These robust statistics provide the basis for nonlinear analysis while retaining linear equivalences.

NNS offers:

  • Numerical Integration & Numerical Differentiation
  • Partitional & Hierarchial Clustering
  • Nonlinear Correlation & Dependence
  • Causal Analysis
  • Nonlinear Regression & Classification
  • ANOVA
  • Seasonality & Autoregressive Modeling
  • Normalization
  • Stochastic Dominance
  • Advanced Monte Carlo Sampling

Companion R-package and datasets to:

Viole, F. and Nawrocki, D. (2013) "Nonlinear Nonparametric Statistics: Using Partial Moments" (ISBN: 1490523995)

For a quantitative finance implementation of NNS, see OVVO Labs
