Nonlinear functional models for functional responses in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. (English) Zbl 1142.62020

Summary: The author proposes an extension of the reproducing kernel Hilbert space theory which provides a new framework for analyzing functional responses with regression models. The approach only presumes a general nonlinear regression structure, as opposed to the existing linear regression models. The author proposes generalized cross-validation for automatic smoothing parameter estimation. He illustrates the use of the new estimator both on real and simulated data.
