Abstract: | In functional linear regression, one conventional approach is to first perform functional principal component analysis (FPCA) on the functional predictor and then use the first few leading functional principal component (FPC) scores to predict the response variable. The leading FPCs estimated by the conventional FPCA stand for the major source of variation of the functional predictor, but these leading FPCs may not be mostly correlated with the response variable, so the prediction accuracy of the functional linear regression model may not be optimal. In this paper, we propose a supervised version of FPCA by considering the correlation of the functional predictor and response variable. It can automatically estimate leading FPCs, which represent the major source of variation of the functional predictor and are simultaneously correlated with the response variable. Our supervised FPCA method is demonstrated to have a better prediction accuracy than the conventional FPCA method by using one real application on electroencephalography (EEG) data and three carefully designed simulation studies. |
