A note on nonparametric estimation of circular conditional densities

ABSTRACT The conditional density offers the most informative summary of the relationship between explanatory and response variables. We need to estimate it in place of the simple conditional mean when its shape is not well-behaved. A motivation for estimating conditional densities, specific to the circular setting, lies in the fact that a natural alternative of it, like quantile regression, could be considered problematic because circular quantiles are not rotationally equivariant. We treat conditional density estimation as a local polynomial fitting problem as proposed by Fan et al. [Estimation of conditional densities and sensitivity measures in nonlinear dynamical systems. Biometrika. 1996;83:189–206] in the Euclidean setting, and discuss a class of estimators in the cases when the conditioning variable is either circular or linear. Asymptotic properties for some members of the proposed class are derived. The effectiveness of the methods for finite sample sizes is illustrated by simulation experiments and an example using real data.
