Nonparametric multiplicative regression
Hi, Ndniche.

I see that you started this article. I'm curious if you have any more content you plan to add soon. As it stands, the article doesn't really say much. Oh – I'm also curious about the multiplicative part. In my experience, statistical models that involve exponential rates of growth, or ratios between variables, are usually constructed by taking logarithms and then looking for linear or almost linear relationships. Why isn't that done in the situations you're discussing?

Thanks for any insight you can provide. Have a great day! DavidCBryant 11:53, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
