<![CDATA[The non-parametric approach is an approach that is used if the form of the relationship between the response variable and the predictor variable is unknown or the absence of information about the shapes of regression functions. The Spline is a technique performed to estimate the parameters in the nonparametric regression. This study aims to determine the model of the relationship between low birth weight and the factors that affect the based on the spline model. Such factors are maternal age, gestational age, and pregnancy distance. The Data is obtained from the mother and child hospital siti Fatimah Makassar 2017. Where to get a spline model best the initial step is to determine the knots with the value of the Generalized Cross Validation (GCV) which is a minimum. Based on the research that has been done, the two variables stated effect against low birth weight, namely age of mother, and gestational age. Nonparametric regression Model with the approach of the Spline that is formed has a coefficient of determination of 78.19 to%, as well as the value of the GCV with a three-point knot that is 0.0117.]]>
