Abstract:

Smoothing Spline ANOVA (SS-ANOVA) model is an important tool to estimate a multivariate smooth function. The heavy computational demand prevents its applications to high-dimensional problems and large datasets. We propose a state-space representation for the SS-ANOVA. A fast algorithm for multivariate state-space model is adapted for the SS-ANOVA. Representing a SS-ANOVA model in the state space form not only leads to a computationally efficient algorithm for estimation, but also enables the algorithm to be implemented in an online setting which is of particular importance to our real data application. For simplicity, we present our approach for the two-dimensional setting as the extension to higher dimension is straightforward. A numerical example and an application to the EEG data are used as illustration.
