In a transformation model h(Y) = X'β + ε for some smooth and usually monotone function h, we are often interested in the direction of β without knowing the exact form of h. We consider a projection of ...
Various methods have been proposed for smoothing under the monotonicity constraint. We review the literature and implement an approach of monotone smoothing with B-splines for a generalized linear ...
The missing portions of variables subjected to SPLINE or MSPLINE transformations are handled the same way as for OPSCORE, MONOTONE, UNTIE, and LINEAR transformations (see the previous section). The ...
