In this paper, we apply empirical likelihood method to infer for the regression parameters in the partial functional linear regression models based on B-spline. We prove that the empirical log-likelihood ratio for the regression parameters converges in law to a weighted sum of independent chi-square distributions. Our simulation shows that the proposed empirical likelihood method produces more accurate confidence regions in terms of coverage probability than the asymptotic normality method.

Empirical likelihood as a nonparametric approach has been demonstrated to have many desirable merits for constructing a confidence region. The purpose of this article is to apply the empirical likelihood method to study the generalized functional-coefficient regression models with multiple smoothing variables when the response is subject to random right censoring. The coefficient functions with multiple smoothing variables can accommodate various nonlinear interaction effects between covariates. The empirical log-likelihood ratio of an unknown parameter is constructed and shown to have a standard chi-squared limiting distribution at the true parameter. Based on this, the confidence region of the unknown parameter can be constructed. Simulation studies are carried out to indicate that the empirical likelihood method performs better than a normal approximation-based approach for constructing the confidence region.
