The Weighted Hellinger Distance for Kernel Distribution Estimator of Function of Observations

摘要

The asymptotic mean weighted Hellinger distance (AMWHD) is derived for the kernel distribution estimator of a function of observations. In addition, the AMWHD is compared with the asymptotic mean integrated square error (AMISE) of the estimator. A completely data based method is proposed to select the bandwidth in the estimator using the mean weighted Hellinger distance (MWHD).
