Abstract
English
The dissertation consists of three essays. The main focus is set on semiparametric regression modeling, which embodies the strength of parametric and nonparametric regression models in terms of flexibility, dimensionality and interpretability. The first essay is “Some Recent Advances in Modeling with Mixed Effects for Small Areas, Multi-level and Panel Models
