Consider a response variable Y that can be predicted by a polynomial function of a regressor variable X. You can estimate , the intercept, , the slope due to X, and , the slope due to X 2, in for the ...

The kernel estimator fits a local mean at each point x and thus cannot even estimate a line without bias (Cleveland, Cleveland, Devlin and Grosse 1988). An estimator based on locally-weighted ...
