摘要
In the context of kernel density estimation, we give a characterization of the kernels for which the parametric mean integrated squared error (MISE) rate n(-1) maybe obtained, where n is the sample size. Also, for the cases where this rate is attainable, we give an asymptotic bandwidth choice that makes the kernel estimator consistent in mean integrated squared error at that rate and a numerical example showing the superior performance of the superkernel estimator when the bandwidth is properly chosen.
