Remarks on Some Recursive Estimators of a Probability Density
The density estimator, $f^\ast_n(x) = n^{-1}\sum^n_{j = 1}h^{-1}_jK((x - X_j)/h_j)$, as well as the closely related one $f^\dagger_n(x) = n^{-1}h_n^{-\frac{1}{2}}\sum^n_{j = 1}h_j^{-\frac{1}{2}}K((x - X_j)/h_j)$ are considered. Expressions for asymptotic bias and variance are developed. Using the almost sure invariance principle, laws of the iterated logarithm are developed. Finally, illustration of …
