In bbemkr: Bayesian bandwidth estimation for multivariate kernel regression with Gaussian error

Description

Bayesian bandwidth estimation for Nadaraya-Watson type multivariate kernel regression with the Gaussian assumption of the error density and kernel-form error density

Details

This package designs for estimating bandwidths used in the Nadaraya-Watson kernel regression estimator. Assuming iid Gaussian error density that are uncorrelated to the regressors, the bandwidths are estimated using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method, in particular by the random-walk Metropolis algorithm.
