Details

Point forecasts: The NIPALS function implements the orthogonal scores algorithm, as described in Martens and Naes (1989). This is one of the two classical PLSR algorthms, the other is the simple partial least squares regression in DeJong (1993). The difference between these two approaches is that the NIPALS deflates the original predictors and responses, while the SIMPLS deflates the covariance matrix of original predictors and responses. Thus, SIMPLS is more computationally efficient than NIPALS. In a functional data set, the functional PLSR can be performed by setting the functional responses to be 1 lag ahead of the functional predictors. This idea has been adopted from the Autoregressive Hilbertian processes of order 1 (ARH(1)) of Bosq (2000). Distributional forecasts: Parametric method: Influenced by the works of Denham (1997) and Phatak et al. (1993), one way of constructing prediction intervals in the PLSR is via a local linearization method (also known as the Delta method). It can be easily understood as the first two terms in a Taylor series expansion. The variance of coefficient estimators can be approximated, from which an analytic-formula based prediction intervals are constructed. Nonparametric method: After discretizing and decentralizing functional data $f_t(x)$ and $g_s(y)$, a PLSR model with $K$ latent components is built. Then, the fit residuals $o_s(y_i)$ between $g_s(y_i)$ and $\hat{g}_s(y_i)$ are calculated as $$o_s(y_i)=g_s(y_i)-\hat{g}_s(y_i), i=1,...,p.$$ The next step is to generate $B$ bootstrap samples $o_s^b(y_i)$ by randomly sampling with replacement from $[o_1(y_i),...,o_n(y_i)]$. Adding bootstrapped residuals to the original response variables in order to generate new bootstrap responses, $$g_s^b(y_i)=g_s(y_i)+o_s^b(y_i).$$ Then, the PLSR models are constructed using the centered and discretized predictors and bootstrapped responses to obtain the boostrapped regression coefficients and point forecasts, from which the empirical prediction intervals and kernel density plots are constructed.
