Nonparametric Estimation of Correlation Functions in Longitudinal and Spatial Data, with Application to Colon Carcinogenesis Experiments

In longitudinal and spatial studies, observations often demonstrate strong correlations that are stationary in time or distance lags, and the times or locations of these data being sampled may not be homogeneous. We propose a nonparametric estimator of the correlation function in such data, using ke...
