In this work, we treat a prediction problem via the conditional hazard function of a scalar response variable Y given a functional random variable X by using the local linear technique. The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the asymptotic normality of the nonparametric estimator of the conditional hazard function, under some general conditions. A simulation study, conducted to assess finite sample behavior, demonstrates the superiority of our method than the standard kernel method

We introduce a local linear nonparametric estimation for the generalized regression function of a scalar response variable given a random variable taking values in a semi metric space. We establish a rate of uniform consistency for the proposed estimators. Then, based on a real data set we illustrate the performance of a particular studied estimator with respect to other known estimators

Let T be a nonnegative random variable representing the lifetimes of individuals in some population. Let f(t) denote the probability density function of T and F(t) denote the distribution function of T, the hazard function of T defined as  F(t) - 1  S(t)   whereS(t) f(t) h(t)   If equation (1) integrated we have cumulative hazard function H (t).  This paper describes application of kernel method for estimation of hazard function h (.) based censoring data. And then we will show that the hazard estimator is unbiased asymptotically, consistent, and normal asymptotically. Key word: kernel methods, estimation hazard function.

Summary Estimation of mean and covariance functions is fundamental for functional data analysis. While this topic has been studied extensively in the literature, a key assumption is that there are enough data in the domain of interest to estimate both the mean and covariance functions. In this paper, we investigate mean and covariance estimation for functional snippets in which observations from a subject are available only in an interval of length strictly (and often much) shorter than the length of the whole interval of interest. For such a sampling plan, no data is available for direct estimation of the off-diagonal region of the covariance function. We tackle this challenge via a basis representation of the covariance function. The proposed estimator enjoys a convergence rate that is adaptive to the smoothness of the underlying covariance function, and has superior finite-sample performance in simulation studies.
