摘要
This paper proposes a new non-parametric procedure to estimate age-dependent reference ranges based on Tibshirani's AVAS (additivity and variance stabilization) procedure for non-parametric estimation of transformations for regression. Several examples are given to illustrate the flexibility and applicability of the proposed method; these include alkaline phosphatase in girls, and foot length and head circumference during gestation.
