lplm {Rearrangement}

Local Linear Regression Methods for Conditional Mean Functions

Description

Implements the local nonparametric method, local linear regression estimator with box kernel (default), for conditional mean functions.

Usage

lplm(x, y, h, xx)

Arguments

x

The conditioning covariate

y

The response variable

h

The bandwidth parameter

xx

The points at which the function is to be estimated

Details

The function uses a box kernel.

Value

xx

The design points at which the evaluation occurs

fitted.values

The estimated function values at these design points
