A mixture- based framework for nonparametric density estimation

The primary goal of this thesis is to provide a mixture-based framework for nonparametric density estimation. This framework advocates the use of a mixture model with a nonparametric mixing distribution to approximate the distribution of the data. The implementation of a mixture-based nonparametric...

description The primary goal of this thesis is to provide a mixture-based framework for nonparametric density estimation. This framework advocates the use of a mixture model with a nonparametric mixing distribution to approximate the distribution of the data. The implementation of a mixture-based nonparametric density estimator generally requires the specification of parameters in a mixture model and the choice of the bandwidth parameter. Consequently, a nonparametric methodology consisting of both the estimation and selection steps is described.
