In this paper, a dimension reduction method is proposed by using the first derivative of the conditional density function of response given predictors. To estimate the central subspace, we propose a direct methodology by taking expectation of the product of predictor and kernel function about response, which helps to capture the directions in the conditional density function. The consistency and asymptotic normality of the proposed estimation methodology are investigated. Furthermore, we conduct some simulations to evaluate the performance of our proposed method and compare with existing methods, and a real data set is analyzed for illustration.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
