Bayesian RKHS-based methods in functional regression
A. Coín, J. R. Berrendero, A. Cuevas
In this communication we propose a Bayesian approach for functional linear or logistic regression models, based on the theory of Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces (RKHS’s). These new models build upon the RKHS associated with the covariance function of the underlying stochastic process, and can be viewed as finite-dimensional alternatives to classical functional regression models.
The corresponding functional model (or the functional logistic equation in the case of binary response) is determined by a function living on a dense subset of the RKHS generated by the underlying covariance function. By imposing a suitable prior distribution on such RKHS, we can perform data-driven inference via standard Bayes methodology. The posterior distribution can be approximated from Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods. Several estimators derived from this posterior distribution turn out to be competitive against other usual alternatives in both simulated examples and real datasets.

Visit Alhambra
Tomorrow, Thursday, we will visit the Alhambra. 1. At 7:00 p.m., buses will start leaving from the door of the Hotel Granada Center (in front of the door of the Faculty of Sciences) 2. Upon arrival, groups with guides will be organized. 3. There will be groups in English language. These groups will wait at the destination until the arrival of all buses. 4. After the visit to the Alhambra we will walk to the Carmen de los Mártires to have a cocktail. 5. On the way back, we can go back by bus, which will leave from the same place where they left us at the Alhambra. 6. Although the way to the Alhambra by bus seems long, it really is close to the city. We invite you, whoever wishes, to go down for a pleasant walk. 7. Do not forget to take your Alhambra ticket and your identity card or passport. The document must be the same whose number matches the ticket number you have.
