Total error in a plug-in estimator of level sets

Author

  • Baíllo, Amparo

Abstract

Given a density f, the minimum volume set of probability [alpha] can be estimated by the corresponding minimum volume set of a kernel estimator. We obtain convergence rates for this set estimator with respect to a measure-based distance.
