KurzbeschreibungReview of some non-standard regression models and the statistical properties of estimation methods in such models.
LernzielThe main goal is the students get to discover some less known regression models which either generalize the well-known linear model (for example monotone regression) or violate some of the most fundamental assumptions (as in shuffled or unlinked regression models).
InhaltLinear regression is one of the most used models for prediction and hence one of the most understood in statistical literature. However, linearity might too simplistic to capture the actual relationship between some response and given covariates. Also, there are many real data problems where linearity is plausible but the actual pairing between the observed covariates and responses is completely lost or at partially. In this seminar, we review some of the non-classical regression models and the statistical properties of the estimation methods considered by well-known statisticians and machine learners. This will encompass:
1. Monotone regression
2. Single index model
3. Unlinked regression
4. Partially unlinked regression
