Nonparametric Density Estimation: The L1 View

by László Györfi, Luc Devroye, Laszlo Gyorfi

The first systematic single-source examination of density estimates. It develops, from first principles, the ''natural'' theory for density estimation, L1, and shows why the classical L2 theory masks some fundamental properties of density estimates. Chapters comprehensively treat consistency, lower bounds for rates of convergence, rates of convergence in L1, the transformed kernel estimate, applications in discrimination, and estimators based on orthogonal...
