ON ESTIMATION OF A PROBABILITY DENSITY FUNCTION AND MODE

Abstract

Given a sequence of independent identically distributed random variables with a common probability density function, the problem of the estimation of a probability density function and of determining the mode of a probability function are discussed. Only estimates which are consistent and asymptotically normal are constructed. (Author)
