چکیده
This paper provides a practical description of density estimation based on kernel methods. An important aim is to encourage practicing statisticians to apply these methods to data. As such, reference is made to implementations of these methods in R, S-PLUS and SAS.

On Efficiency Criteria in Density Estimation
We discuss the classical efficiency criteria in density estimation and propose some variants. The context is a general density estimation scheme that contains the cases of i.i.d. or dependent random variables, in discrete or continuous time. Unbiased estimation, optimality and asymptotic optimality are considered. An example of a density estimator that satisfies some suggested criteria is given...

We derive moment inequalities for the supremum of empirical processes of U-Statistic structure and give application to kernel type density estimation and estimation of the distribution function for functions of observations.
متن کاملWavelet Based Estimation of the Derivatives of a Density for m-Dependent Random Variables
Here, we propose a method of estimation of the derivatives of probability density based wavelets methods for a sequence of m−dependent random variables with a common one-dimensional probability density function and obtain an upper bound on Lp-losses for the such estimators.
متن کاملWavelet Based Estimation of the Derivatives of a Density for a Discrete-Time Stochastic Process: Lp-Losses
We propose a method of estimation of the derivatives of probability density based on wavelets methods for a sequence of random variables with a common one-dimensional probability density function and obtain an upper bound on Lp-losses for such estimators. We suppose that the process is strongly mixing and we show that the rate of convergence essentially depends on the behavior of a special quad...
متن کاملRobust Estimation in Linear Regression Model: the Density Power Divergence Approach
The minimum density power divergence method provides a robust estimate in the face of a situation where the dataset includes a number of outlier data. In this study, we introduce and use a robust minimum density power divergence estimator to estimate the parameters of the linear regression model and then with some numerical examples of linear regression model, we show the robustness of this est...
متن کاملThe Development of Maximum Likelihood Estimation Approaches for Adaptive Estimation of Free Speed and Critical Density in Vehicle Freeways
The performance of many traffic control strategies depends on how much the traffic flow models have been accurately calibrated. One of the most applicable traffic flow model in traffic control and management is LWR or METANET model. Practically, key parameters in LWR model, including free flow speed and critical density, are parameterized using flow and speed measurements gathered by inductive ...
