  • Aman Ullah

Abstract

In this paper, the author reviews and explores the nonparametric density estimation approach for analyzing various econometric func tionals. The applications of density estimation are emphasized in the specification, estimation, and testing problems arising in econometr ics. Some limitations of the nonparametric approach are examined, and potential future areas of applied and theoretical research are indic ated.
