Partially linear models (PLM) are regression models in which the response depends on some covariates linearly but on other covariates nonparametrically. PLMs generalize standard linear regression techniques and are special cases of additive models. This chapter covers the basic results and explains how PLMs are applied in the biometric practice. More specifically, we are mainly concerned with least squares estimators of the linear parameter while the nonparametric part is estimated by eg kernel regression, spline approximation, piecewise polynomial and local polynomial techniques. When the model is heteroscedastic, the variance functions are approximated by weighted least squares estimators. Numerous examples illustrate the implementation in practice.
