Probab. Lett., 73(3):297–304, 2005). The estimator is illustrated via one example based on a real data.

In this paper, estimators of \beta and g are constructed when the explanatory variables t take values on a Riemannian manifold. Our proposal combine the flexibility of these models with the complex structure of a set of explanatory variables. We prove that the resulting estimator of \beta is asymptotically normal under the suitable conditions. Through a simulation study, we explored the performance of the estimators. Finally, we applied the studied model to an example based on real dataset.

We obtain the consistency and the asymptotic normality of the proposed estimators. Also, we consider a robust cross validation procedure to select the smoothing parameter. Simulations and application to real data show the performance of our proposal under small samples and contamination.

Partly linear models on Riemannian manifolds

We are interested in developing an estimation procedure that allows us to combine the flexibility of the partly linear models, studied by several authors, but including some variables that belong to a non-Euclidean space. The motivating application of this paper deals with the explanation of the atmospheric SO2 pollution incidents using these models when some of the predictive variables belong in a cylinder. In this paper, the estimators of β and g are constructed when the explanatory variables t take values on a Riemannian manifold and the asymptotic properties of the proposed estimators are obtained under suitable conditions. We illustrate the use of this estimation approach using an environmental data set and we explore the performance of the estimators through a simulation study.

We study asymptotic properties such as the consistency and the asymptotic distribution. A simulation study is also consider to evaluate the performance of the proposal. Finally, to illustrate the potential applications of the proposed estimator, we analyzed two real example where two different manifolds are considered.
