A New Estimator of Entropy
In this paper we propose an estimator of the entropy of a continuous random variable. The estimator is obtained by modifying the estimator proposed by Vasicek (1976). Consistency of estimator is proved, and comparisons are made with Vasicek’s estimator (1976), van Es’s estimator (1992), Ebrahimi et al.’s estimator (1994) and Correa’s estimator (1995). The results indicate that the proposed esti...
متن کاملKernel Estimator and Bandwidth Selection for Density and its Derivatives
In statistics, the univariate kernel density estimation (KDE) is a non-parametric way to estimate the probability density function f(x) of a random variable X, is a fundamental data smoothing problem where inferences about the population are made, based on a finite data sample. This techniques are widely used in various inference procedures such as signal processing, data mining and econometric...
متن کاملA Note about the Critical Bandwidth for a Kernel Density Estimator with the Uniform Kernel
Among available bandwidths for kernel density estimators, the critical bandwidth is a data-driven one, which satisfies a constraint on the number of modes of the estimated density. When using a random bandwidth, it is of particular interest to show that it goes toward 0 in probability when the sample size goes to infinity. Such a property is important to prove satisfying asymptotic results abou...
متن کاملBandwidth selection for the presmoothed density estimator with censored data
This paper is concerned with the problem of selecting a suitable bandwidth for the presmoothed density estimator from right censored data. An asymptotic expression for the mean integrated squared error (MISE) of this estimator is given, and the smoothing parameters minimizing it are proved to be consistent approximations of the MISE bandwidths. As consequence, a bandwidth selector based on plug...
متن کاملBandwidth Selection for Weighted Kernel Density Estimation
Abstract: In the this paper, the authors propose to estimate the density of a targeted population with a weighted kernel density estimator (wKDE) based on a weighted sample. Bandwidth selection for wKDE is discussed. Three mean integrated squared error based bandwidth estimators are introduced and their performance is illustrated via Monte Carlo simulation. The least-squares cross-validation me...
