On distribution-weighted partial least squares with diverging number of highly correlated predictors, by Li-Ping Zhu and Li-Xing Zhu, pages 525–548

Estimate the direction in the model Y = G(\beta^T X, e) by distribution-weighted partial least quares

Usage: DPLS = DWPLS(x, y, K)

Input:
x -- the observation predictors matrix of size [n, p] where n is the sample size and p is the dimension of predictors
y -- continuous response vector of size [n, 1];
K -- the dimension of Krylov space. In applications K is often very small. We can usually choose K = 1, 2 or 3. One can also refer to Section 3.1 (15) for a BIC type criterion to estimate the dimension.

Output:
DPLS -- the estimated direction by DWPLS

Two examples are given in the file Example_Data.txt.
