Adaptive optimal kernel density estimation for directional data

Author

  • Pham Ngoc, Thanh Mai

Abstract

This paper considers nonparametric density estimation with directional data. A new rule is proposed for bandwidth selection for kernel density estimation. The procedure is automatic, fully data-driven, and adaptive to the degree of smoothness of the density. An oracle inequality and optimal rates of convergence for the L2 error are derived. These theoretical results are illustrated with simulations.
