pcf.loclin: Multivariate local linear estimator

Description

Computes the values of a multivariate local linear regression estimator on a regular grid.

Usage

pcf.loclin(x, y, h, N, type=0, kernel="gauss", support=NULL, alt=FALSE, alt2=FALSE)

Arguments

x

n*d data matrix; the matrix of the values of the explanatory variables

y

n vector; the values of the response variable

h

a positive real number; the smoothing parameter of the kernel estimate

N

vector of d positive integers; the number of grid points for each direction

type

integer 0,...,d; if type=0, then the regression function is estimated, otherwise the first partial derivative of the variable indicated by type is estimated

kernel

a character; determines the kernel function; either "gauss" or "uniform"

support

either NULL or a 2*d vector; the vector gives the d intervals of a rectangular support in the form c(low_1,upp_1,...,low_d,upp_d)

alt

an internal parameter

alt2

an internal parameter
