Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This paper introduces ridge‐type kernel smoothing estimators for par-tially linear time‐series models that employ shrinkage estimation to han-dle autoregressive errors and severe multicollinearity in the parametric component. By combining a generalized ridge penalty with kernel smoothing, the proposed estimators solve inflated variances arising from linear dependencies among predictors, while also accounting for auto-correlation. Four well-known selection criteria—Generalized Cross Val-idation (GCV), Improved Akaike Information Criterion (AICc), Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC), and Risk Estimation via Classical Pilots (RECP)—are used to optimally choose both the bandwidth and shrinkage parameters. We provide closed‐form expressions for these estimators, establish their asymptotic properties, and present a risk‐based analysis that highlights the benefits of ordinary and positive‐part shrinkage ex-tensions. Simulation studies confirm that the introduced shrinkage ap-proaches outperforms standard methods when predictors are strongly correlated, with this advantage growing as sample sizes increase. An ap-plication to airline delay time‐series data further illustrates the efficacy and practical interpretability of the introduced methodology.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
