Median-Unbiased Optimal Smoothing And Trend Extraction, Dimitrios D. Thomakos
Median-Unbiased Optimal Smoothing And Trend Extraction, Dimitrios D. Thomakos
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
The problem of smoothing a time series for extracting its low frequency characteristics, collectively called its trend, is considered. A competitive approach is proposed and compared with existing methods in choosing the optimal degree of smoothing based on the distribution of the residuals from the smooth trend.

Another Look At Resampling: Replenishing Small Samples With Virtual Data Through S-Smart, Haiyan Bai, Wei Pan, Leigh Lihshing Wang, Phillip Neal Ritchey
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
A new resampling method is introduced to generate virtual data through a smoothing technique for replenishing small samples. The replenished analyzable sample retains the statistical properties of the original small sample, has small standard errors and possesses adequate statistical power.
