Abstract

In this paper, we propose a model averaging estimation for the varying-coefficient partially linear models with missing responses. Within this context, we construct a HRCp weight choice criterion that exhibits asymptotic optimality under certain assumptions. Our model averaging procedure can simultaneously address the uncertainty on which covariates to include and the uncertainty on whether a covariate should enter the linear or nonlinear component of the model. The simulation results in comparison with some related strategies strongly favor our proposal. A real dataset is analyzed to illustrate the practical application as well.
