Abstract

A robust local linear regression smoothing estimator for a nonparametric regression model with heavy-tailed dependent errors is considered in this paper. Under certain regularity conditions, the weak consistency and asymptotic distribution of the proposed estimators are obtained. If the errors are short-range dependent, then the limiting distribution of the estimator is normal. If the data are long-range dependent, then the limiting distribution of the estimator is a stable distribution. © 2007 The Institute of Statistical Mathematics, Tokyo.
