| contents | Nonparametric mean function regression with repeated measurements serves as a cornerstone for many statistical branches, such as longitudinal/panel/functional data analysis. In this work, we investigate this problem using fully connected deep neural network (DNN) estimators with flexible shapes. A novel theoretical framework allowing arbitrary sampling frequency is established by adopting empirical process techniques to tackle clustered dependence. We then consider the DNN estimators for Hölder target function and illustrate a key phenomenon, the phase transition in the convergence rate, inherent to repeated measurements and its connection to the curse of dimensionality. Furthermore, we study several examples with low intrinsic dimensions, including the hierarchical composition model, low-dimensional support set and anisotropic Hölder smoothness. We also obtain new approximation results and matching lower bounds to demonstrate the adaptivity of the DNN estimators for circumventing the curse of dimensionality. Simulations and real data examples are provided to support our theoretical findings and practical implications. |
