It causes the auto-correlation of error, and this can be overcome by using a covariance matrix. In this article, we estimate the covariance matrix based on the penalized spline regression model. Penalized spline involves knot points and smoothing parameters simultaneously in controlling the smoothness of the curve. Based on our simulation study, the estimated regression model of the weighted penalized spline with covariance matrix gives a smaller error value compared to the error of the model without covariance matrix. ## Keywords - Covariance matrix - Spline (mechanical) - Longitudinal data - Mathematics - Statistics - Regression - Covariance - Regression analysis - Estimation of covariance matrices - Analysis of covariance - Applied mathematics - Econometrics - Computer science - Data mining - Engineering - Structural engineering --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
