This $290,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Mathematical Sciences, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.049), will support the development of data exploration and visualization tools for Fréchet regression analysis of metric-space valued data at Penn State University. The goal is to systematically develop a set of tools to assist with preliminary data exploration, visualization, model diagnostics, and improved estimation accuracy for this new type of regression analysis applied to data that does not possess basic properties like directionality. Specific deliverables include sufficient dimension reduction methods for metric-space valued predictor and response variables in both linear and nonlinear Fréchet regression, as well as computer packages providing the analysis tools. The results are intended to expand the applicability of existing multivariate and functional data analysis methods to this new data type. Graduate student training in modern statistical sciences is also part of the project scope.
