The Estimating of the Conditional Density with Application to the Mode Function in Scalar-On-Function Regression Structure: Local Linear Approach with Missing at Random by Wahiba Bouabsa

“…This proposed estimator is given by combining Missing At Random (MAR) with the local linear approach. Finally, a comparison study based on simulated data is also provided to illustrate the finite sample performances and the usefulness of the local linear approach with MAR to the presence of even a small proportion of outliers in the data.…”
