Penalized spline smoothing of time series and its asymptotic properties are studied. A data-driven algorithm for selecting the smoothing parameter is developed. The proposal is applied to define a semiparametric extension of the well-known Spline-GARCH, called a P-Spline-GARCH, based on the log-data transformation of the squared returns. It is shown that now the errors process is exponentially strong mixing with finite moments of all orders. Asymptotic normality of the P-spline smoother in this context is proved. Practical relevance of the proposal is illustrated by data examples and simulation. The proposal is further applied to value at risk and expected shortfall.
Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) are notoriously difficult to solve. In general, closed-form solutions are not available and numerical approximation schemes are computationally expensive. In this paper, we propose to approach the solution of PDE
A standard construction in approximation theory is mesh refinement. For a simplicial or polyhedral mesh D in R^k, we study the subdivision D obtained by subdividing a maximal cell of D. We give sufficient conditions for the module of splines on D to
Partially linear additive models generalize the linear models since they model the relation between a response variable and covariates by assuming that some covariates are supposed to have a linear relation with the response but each of the others en
In this paper, we investigate the problem of designing compact support interpolation kernels for a given class of signals. By using calculus of variations, we simplify the optimization problem from an infinite nonlinear problem to a finite dimensiona
Several results on constrained spline smoothing are obtained. In particular, we establish a general result, showing how one can constructively smooth any monotone or convex piecewise polynomial function (ppf) (or any $q$-monotone ppf, $qgeq 3$, with
