Abstract:

Using an expectation of conditional difference measure, we introduce a novel approach to sufficient dimension reduction problems. The proposed method is model-free and is especially useful when the response is categorical. The estimation of dimension and the central subspace using the measure is discussed and the dimension reduction for large p and small n cases is developed. The root-n consistency and asymptotic normality is established under regularity conditions. Numerical studies are provided to demonstrate the advantage of the method. The proposed method is very competitive and robust comparing to existing dimension reduction methods.
