Items related to Smoothing Spline ANOVA Models (Springer Series in Statistics...
Smoothing methods are an active area of research. In this book, the author presents a comprehensive treatment of penalty smoothing under a unified framework. Methods are developed for (i) regression with Gaussian and non-Gaussian responses as well as with censored life time data; (ii) density and conditional density estimation under a variety of sampling schemes; and (iii) hazard rate estimation with censored life time data and covariates. Extensive discussions are devoted to model construction, smoothing parameter selection, computation, and asymptotic convergence. Most of the computational and data analytical tools discussed in the book are implemented in R, an open-source clone of the popular S/S- PLUS language.

About the Author:
Nonparametric function estimation with stochastic data, otherwise
known as smoothing, has been studied by several generations of
statisticians. Assisted by the ample computing power in today's
servers, desktops, and laptops, smoothing methods have been finding
their ways into everyday data analysis by practitioners. While scores
of methods have proved successful for univariate smoothing, ones
practical in multivariate settings number far less. Smoothing spline
ANOVA models are a versatile family of smoothing methods derived
through roughness penalties, that are suitable for both univariate and
multivariate problems.
In this book, the author presents a treatise on penalty smoothing
under a unified framework. Methods are developed for (i) regression
with Gaussian and non-Gaussian responses as well as with censored lifetime data; (ii) density and conditional density estimation under a
variety of sampling schemes; and (iii) hazard rate estimation with
censored life time data and covariates. The unifying themes are the
general penalized likelihood method and the construction of
multivariate models with built-in ANOVA decompositions. Extensive
discussions are devoted to model construction, smoothing parameter
selection, computation, and asymptotic convergence.
