Journal ArticleDOI
A reliable data-based bandwidth selection method for kernel density estimation
Simon J. Sheather,M. C. Jones +1 more
TL;DR: The key to the success of the current procedure is the reintroduction of a non- stochastic term which was previously omitted together with use of the bandwidth to reduce bias in estimation without inflating variance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical applications of visual analogue scales: a critical review.
TL;DR: Decisions concerning the choice of scoring interval, experimental design, and statistical analysis for VAS have in some instances been based on convention, assumption and convenience, highlighting the need for more comprehensive assessment of individual scales if this versatile and sensitive measurement technique is to be used to full advantage.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Brief Survey of Bandwidth Selection for Density Estimation
TL;DR: In this article, the authors recommend a "solve-the-equation" plug-in bandwidth selector as being most reliable in terms of overall performance for kernel density estimation.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Effective Bandwidth Selector for Local Least Squares Regression
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors apply the idea of plug-in bandwidth selection to develop strategies for choosing the smoothing parameter of local linear squares kernel estimators, which is applicable to odd-degree local polynomial fits and can be extended to other settings, such as derivative estimation and multiple nonparametric regression.
Book
Robust Estimation and Testing
TL;DR: In this article, the field of statistics has been studied for estimating scale and asymptotic results of location-dispersion estimation, and the two-sample problem has been considered.
