Abstract: The goal of this paper is to present a method for construction of simultaneous Scheff´e confidence bands for nonparametric prediction functions. The family of nonparametric functions studied here are of the polynomial-trigonometric series type, with estimation of the model parameters undertaken in the standard least-squares framework. After the method is set forth the performance of the procedure is studied via Monte-Carlo simulations.
