Abstract

The paper introduces a new difference-based ridge regression estimator \({\hat{\beta}(k)}\) of the regression parameters β in the partial linear model. Its mean-squared error is compared analytically with the non-ridge version \({\hat{\beta}(0)}\) . Finally, the performance of the new estimator is evaluated for a real data set.
