single.index: Single index model regression estimator at one point

Description

Computes the value of a single index model regression estimator at one point.

Usage

single.index(x, y, arg=NULL, h=1, kernel="gauss", M=2, method="iter",
vect=FALSE, argd=arg, take=length(y), seed=1)

Arguments

x

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

y

n vector; the values of the response variable

arg

NULL or d vector; the point where the value of the regression function is estimated

h

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

kernel

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

M

integer >=2; the number of iterations

method

character string; "poid", "aved", "iter", or "nume"; if method="poid", then the direction vector is estimated using the reference point optionally given in the argument "argd"; if method="aved", then the average derivative method is used; if method="iter", then an iterative algorithm is used; if method="nume", then numerical optimization is used

vect

TRUE or FALSE; internal parameter

argd

d vector; the point optionally used in the estimation of the direction vector

take

positive integer

seed

real number; the seed for the random number generator

Value

if arg=NULL, then the estimated index is returned, otherwise the estimate at "arg" is returned
