RESUMEN
We consider the problem of optimal model averaging for partially linear models when the responses are missing at random and some covariates are measured with error. A novel weight choice criterion based on the Mallows-type criterion is proposed for the weight vector to be used in the model averaging. The resulting model averaging estimator for the partially linear models is shown to be asymptotically optimal under some regularity conditions in terms of achieving the smallest possible squared loss. In addition, the existence of a local minimizing weight vector and its convergence rate to the risk-based optimal weight vector are established. Simulation studies suggest that the proposed model averaging method generally outperforms existing methods. As an illustration, the proposed method is applied to analyze an HIV-CD4 dataset.
RESUMEN
This paper studies a novel model averaging estimation issue for linear regression models when the responses are right censored and the covariates are measured with error. A novel weighted Mallows-type criterion is proposed for the considered issue by introducing multiple candidate models. The weight vector for model averaging is selected by minimizing the proposed criterion. Under some regularity conditions, the asymptotic optimality of the selected weight vector is established in terms of its ability to achieve the lowest squared loss asymptotically. Simulation results show that the proposed method is superior to the other existing related methods. A real data example is provided to supplement the actual performance.
