Abstract:

Under the general framework of partial sufficient dimension reduction (Chiaromonte et al. 2002), we generalize the notion of partial central subspace from categorical W to continuous ones. Asymptotic properties and small sample properties are also studied. Our method provides a general solution to partial dimension reduction when it is more desirable to conduct dimension reduction on part of the predictors (X) while incorporating the prior information from W (whether W is categorical or continuous), rather than to treat all components of the predictors (X,W) indiscriminately. One immediate application is to the well-known partially linear single-index or multiple-index model (Wang et al. 2010, Carrol et al. 1997).
