"In this talk, we consider PACE (principal components analysis through conditional expectation) which is a nonparametric method for sparse longitudinal data. The method aims at irregularly spaced longitudinal data, where the number of repeated measurements available per subject is small. First I will make a comparision between MDA and FDA, and then introduce PACE method, illustrated with a simulation study, longitudinal CD4 data for a sample of AIDS patients, e-Bay auction data and time-course gene expression data for the yeast cell cycle. Finally under some mild regularity assumption, we present asympototic properties of this proposed estimation method."
