On local bootstrap bandwidth choice in kernel density estimation

Author

Listed:
  • Ziegler Klaus

Abstract

Under mild regularity conditions, it is shown that bandwidth selection by minimizing the bootstrapped mean squared error (at a point x) leads to a bandwidth of the same form as that obtained by a consistent plug-in procedure. The consequences of this observation for the construction of confidence intervals are also discussed.
