UNIFORM IN BANDWIDTH CONSISTENCY OF KERNEL - TYPE FUNCTION ESTIMATORS By
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.
متن کاملWeighted Uniform Consistency of Kernel Density Estimators
Let fn denote a kernel density estimator of a continuous density f in d dimensions, bounded and positive. Let (t) be a positive continuous function such that ‖ f β‖∞ < ∞ for some 0 < β < 1/2. Under natural smoothness conditions, necessary and sufficient conditions for the sequence √ nhn 2| loghn | ‖ (t)(fn(t)−Efn(t))‖∞ to be stochastically bounded and to converge a.s. to a constant are obtained...
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 کاملUniform in bandwidth consistency of local polynomial regression function estimators
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 کاملNew Bandwidth Selection for Kernel Quantile Estimators
We propose a cross-validation method suitable for smoothing of kernel quantile estimators. In particular, our proposed method selects the bandwidth parameter, which is known to play a crucial role in kernel smoothing, based on unbiased estimation of a mean integrated squared error curve of which the minimising value determines an optimal bandwidth. This method is shown to lead to asymptotically...
