Functional Data Analysis
TLDR
In this article, the authors provide an overview of FDA, starting with simple statistical notions such as mean and covariance functions, then covering some core techniques, the most popular of which is functional principal component analysis (FPCA).Abstract:
With the advance of modern technology, more and more data are being recorded continuously during a time interval or intermittently at several discrete time points. These are both examples of functional data, which has become a commonly encountered type of data. Functional data analysis (FDA) encompasses the statistical methodology for such data. Broadly interpreted, FDA deals with the analysis and theory of data that are in the form of functions. This paper provides an overview of FDA, starting with simple statistical notions such as mean and covariance functions, then covering some core techniques, the most popular of which is functional principal component analysis (FPCA). FPCA is an important dimension reduction tool, and in sparse data situations it can be used to impute functional data that are sparsely observed. Other dimension reduction approaches are also discussed. In addition, we review another core technique, functional linear regression, as well as clustering and classification of functional d...read more

Multivariate functional data clustering using adaptive density peak detection
TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors proposed a novel clustering method for multivariate functional data using an adaptive density peak detection technique based on the two measures of each functional data observation: the functional density estimate and the distance to the closest observation with a higher functional density.
An adaptive model checking test for functional linear model
TL;DR: An adaptive model checking test for FLM that combines regular moment- based and conditional moment-based tests, and achieves model adaptivity via the dimension of a residual-based subspace, which is promising in sufficient dimension reduction.

Concurrent Object Regression
TL;DR: In this paper, a new concurrent regression model is proposed to characterize the time-varying relation between an object in a general metric space (as response) and a vector in real values (as predictor) where concepts from Fr\'echet regression is employed.

A global geometric framework for nonlinear dimensionality reduction.
TL;DR: An approach to solving dimensionality reduction problems that uses easily measured local metric information to learn the underlying global geometry of a data set and efficiently computes a globally optimal solution, and is guaranteed to converge asymptotically to the true structure.

Generalized Additive Models
Trevor Hastie,Robert Tibshirani +1 more
TL;DR: The class of generalized additive models is introduced, which replaces the linear form E fjXj by a sum of smooth functions E sj(Xj), and has the advantage of being completely auto- matic, i.e., no "detective work" is needed on the part of the statistician.
