But most traditional statistical and machine learning models assume the available data to be well-behaved in terms of the presence of a full set of essential features, equal size of classes, and stationary data structures in all data instances, etc. Practical data sets from the domain of business analytics, process and quality control, software reliability, and macroeconomics, to name a few, suffer from various complexities and irregularities that are often sufficient to confuse any predictive model. This can degrade the ability of the learning models to learn from the data. Motivated by this, we develop some nonparametric hybrid predictive models and study their statistical properties for theoretical robustness in this thesis UR - http://dspace.isical.ac.in:8080/jspui/handle/10263/7076 ER -
