Abstract:
|
The curse of dimensionality has been problematic in the application of nonparametric and semiparametric regression techniques to high-dimensional time series data. Spline-backfitted local linear (SBLL) and spline-backfitted kernel (SBK) estimators have been successful in addressing this problem, and provide computationally efficient estimators. Moreover, under fairly weak conditions, the estimators are point-wise asymptotically normal. Little work has been conducted in investigating the properties of forecasts using models estimated via SBLL or SBK methods. We propose a method for SBLL and SBK forecasting, and investigate the properties of those forecasts. For illustration, we apply the forecasting methods to irradiance data collected from a solar power plant in Lanai, Hawaii provided by Sandia Research Laboratories.
