Abstract

Different nonparametric procedures in regression analysis perform well under different conditions. A combining method, adaptive regression by mixing (ARM), was proposed for random design. ARM was introduced as well in case of the fixed design (ARMC). In this article, we focus on the individual estimate for variance in ARMI algorithm. Prediction performance and individual\(\hat \sigma ^2 \) need to be estimated in order to assign weight to different procedures. Simulation results show that the ARMI performs better or similarly compared to CV estimator.
