Abstract
Consider the fixed-design nonparametric median regression model Y-i = g(x(i )) + e(i), i greater than or equal to 1. For estimating the regression func tion g(x) and its derivative, the nearest neighbor median estimators (g) ov er tilde(n,h)(x) are employed, where h is the number of the nearest neighbo rs. Under mild regularity conditions, rates of convergence for the estimato rs are obtained.
