New pooling ridge method optimizes functional linear regression for sparse data

Researchers have introduced a new statistical method called pooling ridge estimation to address the long-standing challenge of functional linear regression with discretely observed data. This approach combines pooling strategies with reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) methods to achieve optimal prediction risk across various sampling densities, from sparse to dense designs. The method is applicable to both scalar-on-function and function-on-function regression models, revealing distinct phase transitions influenced by sampling frequencies. AI
