ABSTRACT:
In this talk, we will revise nonparametric regression tools for settings involving a circular covariate and/or response. In recent years, there have been important developments on kernel regression methods for fitting regression curves in circular-linear, linear-circular and circular-circular regression. The existing approaches somehow adapt to the circular nature of the covariate and/or response the ideas in Euclidean local-polynomial methods. This review will consider these previous approaches, originally devised for (classical) mean regression, adapted to these new contexts. We will also consider more complex scenarios where the mean may not be sufficient for capturing the data relation. In these situations, modal and local-likelihood approaches offer a route for solving these problems. All our methods will be illustrated with real data examples.
