Nonparametric inference via bootstrapping the debiased estimator

Abstract: In this paper, we propose to construct confidence bands by bootstrapping the debiased kernel density estimator (for density estimation) and the debiased local polynomial regression estimator (for regression analysis). The idea of using a debiased estimator was first introduced in Calonico et al. (2015), where they construct a confidence interval of the density function (and regression function) at a given point by explicitly estimating stochastic variations. We extend their ideas and propose a bootstrap approa… Show more

“…Nevertheless, the topology (homology) of the confidence regions will in general be different from the one of the target contour, and the normal compatibility assumption (e.g. see Chazal et al 2007) used in Chen et al (2017) for the construction of horizontal variation based confidence regions will be violated in such cases.…”
