Modelling beyond regression functions: An application of multimodal regression to speed-flow data (2006)
Journal Article
Einbeck, J., & Tutz, G. (2006). Modelling beyond regression functions: An application of multimodal regression to speed-flow data. Journal of the Royal Statistical Society: Series C, 55(4), 461-475. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1467-9876.2006.00547.x

For speed–flow data, which are intensively discussed in transportation science, common nonparametric regression models of the type y=m(x)+noise turn out to be inadequate since simple functional models cannot capture the essential relationship between...

A note on NPML estimation for exponential family regression models with unspecified dispersion parameter (2006)
Journal Article
Einbeck, J., & Hinde, J. (2006). A note on NPML estimation for exponential family regression models with unspecified dispersion parameter. Austrian Journal of Statistics, 35(2&3), 233-243

Nonparametric maximum likelihood (NPML) estimation for exponential families with unspecified dispersion parameter \phi suffers from computational instability, which can lead to highly fluctuating EM trajectories and suboptimal solutions, in particula...
