Functional partial least squares regression

Description

Fits a functional partial least squares (PLSR) model using nonlinear partial least squares (NIPALS) algorithm or simple partial least squares (SIMPLS) algorithm.

Usage

fplsr(data, order = 6, type = c("simpls", "nipals"), unit.weights =
 TRUE, weight = FALSE, beta = 0.1, interval = FALSE, method =
  c("delta", "boota"), alpha = 0.05, B = 100, adjust = FALSE,
   backh = 10)

Arguments

data	An object of class fts.
order	Number of principal components to fit.
type	When type = "nipals", uses the NIPALS algorithm; when type = "simpls", uses the SIMPLS algorithm.
unit.weights	Constrains predictor loading weights to have unit norm.
weight	When weight = TRUE, a set of geometrically decaying weights is applied to the decentralized data.
beta	When weight = TRUE, the speed of geometric decay is governed by a weight parameter.
interval	When interval = TRUE, produces distributional forecasts.
method	Method used for computing prediction intervals.
alpha	1-alpha gives the nominal coverage probability.
B	Number of replications.
adjust	When adjust = TRUE, an adjustment is performed.
backh	When adjust = TRUE, an adjustment is performed by evaluating the difference between predicted and actual values in a testing set. backh specifies the testing set.

Details

Point forecasts:

The NIPALS function implements the orthogonal scores algorithm, as described in Martens and Naes (1989). This is one of the two classical PLSR algorthms, the other is the simple partial least squares regression in DeJong (1993). The difference between these two approaches is that the NIPALS deflates the original predictors and responses, while the SIMPLS deflates the covariance matrix of original predictors and responses. Thus, SIMPLS is more computationally efficient than NIPALS.

In a functional data set, the functional PLSR can be performed by setting the functional responses to be 1 lag ahead of the functional predictors. This idea has been adopted from the Autoregressive Hilbertian processes of order 1 (ARH(1)) of Bosq (2000).

Distributional forecasts:

Parametric method:

Influenced by the works of Denham (1997) and Phatak et al. (1993), one way of constructing prediction intervals in the PLSR is via a local linearization method (also known as the Delta method). It can be easily understood as the first two terms in a Taylor series expansion. The variance of coefficient estimators can be approximated, from which an analytic-formula based prediction intervals are constructed.

Nonparametric method:

After discretizing and decentralizing functional data f_t(x) and g_s(y), a PLSR model with K latent components is built. Then, the fit residuals o_s(y_i) between g_s(y_i) and \hat{g}_s(y_i) are calculated as

o_s(y_i)=g_s(y_i)-\hat{g}_s(y_i), i=1,...,p.

The next step is to generate B bootstrap samples o_s^b(y_i) by randomly sampling with replacement from [o_1(y_i),...,o_n(y_i)]. Adding bootstrapped residuals to the original response variables in order to generate new bootstrap responses,

g_s^b(y_i)=g_s(y_i)+o_s^b(y_i).

Then, the PLSR models are constructed using the centered and discretized predictors and bootstrapped responses to obtain the boostrapped regression coefficients and point forecasts, from which the empirical prediction intervals and kernel density plots are constructed.
