Title: Sufficient Dimension Reduction via Hellinger Integral
Author(s): Xiangrong Yin*+
Companies: University of Georgia
Address: 204 Statistics Bldg., Athens, GA, 30602,
Keywords: dimension reduction subspace ; central subspace ; regression graphics
Abstract:

Sufficient dimension reduction has been widely used in statistics, particularly in regression. We propose a general sufficient dimension reduction method that uses Hellinger integral that makes no assumption on the model or the distribution of the predictors. While this method preserves the population properties for the log likelihood methods by Yin and Cook (2003), it may simplify and improve the computations. Consistent as well as asymptotic normality of the estimator is derived. Illustrative examples are presented.
