The author has attempted to present a book that provides a
non-technical introduction into the area of non-parametric density
and regression function estimation. The application of these
methods is discussed in terms of the S computing environment.
Smoothing in high dimensions faces the problem of data sparseness.
A principal feature of smoothing, the averaging of data points in a
prescribed neighborhood, is not really practicable in dimensions
greater than three if we have just one hundred data points.
Additive models provide a way out of this dilemma; but, for their
interactiveness and recursiveness, they require highly effective
algorithms. For this purpose, the method of WARPing (Weighted
Averaging using Rounded Points) is described in great detail.
