  • Can npregress be used to predict mean value of y at given x

    If I split the data into training and test group, can I use npregress to predict the mean value in the test group? In other words, can I use npregress to predict y at some given x? For example,

    sysuse auto, clear
    set seed 123
    gen u=runiform()
    npregress kernel price weight length foreign mpg rep78 headroom trunk turn displacement gear_ratio if u<=0.75, kern(gau)
    predict ye
    su ye if u>0.75

    It seems that no y in the test group were predicted.
