Generalized Additive Models

Generalized Additive ModelsOverviewMany nonparametric methods do not perform well when there are a large number of independent variables inthe model. The sparseness of data in this setting inflates the variance of the estimates. The problem of rapidlyincreasing variance for increasing dimensionality is sometimes referred to as the curse of dimensionality. Interpretability is another problem with nonparametric regression based on kernel and smoothing splineestimates (Hastie and Tibshirani 1990).To overcome these difficulties, Stone (1985) proposed Additive Models . These Models estimate an additiveapproximation to the multivariate regression function. The benefits of an Additive approximation are at leasttwofold.

These functions are estimated in a nonparametric fashion. Generalized additive models extend traditional linear models in another way, namely by allowing for a link between f.X1;:::;Xp/and the expected value of Y. This amounts to allowing for an alternative distribution for the underlying random variation besides just the normal distribution.

3.2 Total variation and lattice operations 3 The total variation v(µ) is also equal to sup|f |≤1 |µf |, the supremum running over all A-measurable functions f bounded in absolute value by 1. Indeed, |µf |=λ|mf|≤λ|m| if |f |≤1, with equality when f ={m ≥ 0}−{m < 0}. When µ(X) = 0, there are some slight simplifications in the formulae for v(µ).In that case, 0 = λm = λm+ − ...
