Title: "SPARROW: Sparse approximation weighted regression"

Abstract:
We propose sparse approximation weighted regression (SPARROW), which
is a nonparametric method of regression that takes advantage of the
sparse linear approximation of a query point. SPARROW employs weights
based on sparse approximation in the context of locally constant,
locally linear, and locally quadratic regression to generate better
estimates than for e.g.,  k-nearest neighbor regression and more
generally, kernel-weighted local polynomial regression. Our
experimental results show that SPARROW performs competitively.

This is joint work with Prof. Bob L. Sturm.
