Abstract:In this paper, we study functional regression and its properties in testing the hypothesis of a constant zero mean function or an unknown constant non-zero mean function. As we show, the associated Wald test statistics have standard chi-square limiting null distributions, standard non-central chi-square distributions for local alternatives converging to zero at a √ n rate, and are consistent against global alternatives. These properties permit computationally convenient tests of hypotheses involving nuisance p… Show more
