Variable Kernel Estimates of Multivariate Densities
Abstract
A class of density estimates using a superposition of kernels where the kernel parameter can depend on the nearest neighbor distances is studied by the use of simulated data. Their performance using several measures of error is superior to that of the usual Parzen estimators. A tentative solution is given to the problem of calibrating the kernel peakedness when faced with a finite sample set.

“When a kernel estimator uses θ K θ Q , it is known as a balloon estimator [14].Papers such as Breiman et al. [10] have even used θ Q as a function of x ′ , known as sample-adaptive smoothing.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
