In NNS: Nonlinear Nonparametric Statistics

NNS

NNS (Nonlinear Nonparametric Statistics) leverages partial moments – the fundamental elements of variance that asymptotically approximate the area under f(x) – to provide a robust foundation for nonlinear analysis while maintaining linear equivalences.

NNS delivers a comprehensive suite of advanced statistical techniques, including: - Numerical Integration & Numerical Differentiation - Partitional & Hierarchial Clustering - Nonlinear Correlation & Dependence - Causal Analysis - Nonlinear Regression & Classification - ANOVA - Seasonality & Autoregressive Modeling - Normalization - Stochastic Dominance - Advanced Monte Carlo Sampling
