English Abstract

In this study, we examined the relationship between the independent x and depen- dent y variables, and the axis of this thesis is focused on the method of how we can estimate the regression function, m(x), where m(x) = E(Y j X = x).

We used nonparametric estimation methods, using the local linear (LL) and the Nadaraya- Watson (NW) kernel estimators, to estimate the regression function, we derived the strong consistency and the asymptotic normality.

Also, the optimal problem of band- width selection is studied for the two estimators.

A theoretical comparison between the two estimators was given.

The performance of the two estimators in estimating the regression function was tested using two simulated data.

Finally the compari- son results proved that local linear kernel estimator is better than Nadaraya-Watson estimators.
