COMPLETE MOMENT CONVERGENCE FOR ARRAYS OF ROWWISE NEGATIVELY ASSOCIATED RANDOM VARIABLES AND ITS APPLICATION IN NON-PARAMETRIC REGRESSION MODEL

摘要

In this paper, some results on the complete moment convergence for arrays of rowwise negatively associated (NA, for short) random variables are established. The results obtained in this paper correct the corresponding one obtained in Ko [13] and also improve and generalize the corresponding ones of Kuczmaszewska [14] and Ko [13]. As an application of the main results, we present a result on complete consistency for the estimator in a non-parametric regression model based on NA errors. Finally, we provide a numerical simulation to verify the validity of our result.
