UNIFORM IN BANDWIDTH CONSISTENCY OF KERNEL - TYPE FUNCTION ESTIMATORS By
نویسنده
چکیده
We introduce a general method to prove uniform in bandwidth consistency of kernel-type function estimators. Examples include the kernel density estimator, the Nadaraya–Watson regression estimator and the conditional empirical process. Our results may be useful to establish uniform consistency of data-driven bandwidth kernel-type function estimators.

Asymptotic Behaviors of Nearest Neighbor Kernel Density Estimator in Left-truncated Data
Kernel density estimators are the basic tools for density estimation in non-parametric statistics. The k-nearest neighbor kernel estimators represent a special form of kernel density estimators, in which the bandwidth is varied depending on the location of the sample points. In this paper, we initially introduce the k-nearest neighbor kernel density estimator in the random left-truncatio...

We generalize a method for proving uniform in bandwidth consistency results for kernel type estimators developed by the two last named authors. Such results are shown to be useful in establishing consistency of local polynomial estimators of the regression function.
متن کاملUniform in Bandwidth Consistency of Kernel Regression Estimators at a Fixed Point
We consider pointwise consistency properties of kernel regression function type estimators where the bandwidth sequence in not necessarily deterministic. In some recent papers uniform convergence rates over compact sets have been derived for such estimators via empirical process theory. We now show that it is possible to get optimal results in the pointwise case as well. The main new tool for t...
متن کاملAlmost Sure Convergence of Kernel Bivariate Distribution Function Estimator under Negative Association
Let {Xn ,n=>1} be a strictly stationary sequence of negatively associated random variables, with common distribution function F. In this paper, we consider the estimation of the two-dimensional distribution function of (X1, Xk+1) for fixed $K /in N$ based on kernel type estimators. We introduce asymptotic normality and properties and moments. From these we derive the optimal bandwidth...

EVARIST GINÉ and DAVID M. MASON Department of Mathematics, University of Connecticut and Statistics Program, University of Delaware ABSTRACT. We apply recent results on local U–statistcs to obtain uniform in bandwidth consistency and central limit theorems for some commonly used estimators of integral functionals of density functions. key words: kernel density estimator, uniform in bandwidth, U...
