Dear Partho,

thank you for your interest!

What I want to do is to fit the model Yi=m(Xi)+ei without making any
assumption on the functional form of m().
The output generated by the kernel regression is a graph as well as a
series of coordinates (new variables created in the database which I
called xker and yker). These coordinates are the points used for the
smoothing. Indeed, xker defines the smoothing grid : at each x0 in the
grid, a weighted regression is performed and associated with a value
y0. Then all these points are joined.

What I want to retrieve instead is for each value of X, the associated
value Yhat through the transformation m().

I am now using locpoly for this regression but I saw I can also use
kernreg2, but I didn't find any help files.

Regards,

Tania
