An alternative method of cross-validation, based on integrated squared error, recently also proposed by Rudemo (1982), is derived, and Hall (1983) has established the consistency and asymptotic optimality of the new method.
Abstract
Cross-validation with Kullback-Leibler loss function has been applied to the choice of a smoothing parameter in the kernel method of density estimation. A framework for this problem is constructed and used to derive an alternative method of cross-validation, based on integrated squared error, recently also proposed by Rudemo (1982). Hall (1983) has established the consistency and asymptotic optimality of the new method. For small and moderate sized samples, the performances of the two methods of cross-validation are compared on simulated data and specific examples.

On the Choice of Smoothing Parameters for Parzen Estimators of Probability Density Functions

TL;DR: Parzen estimators are often used for nonparametric estimation of probability density functions and a problem-dependent criterion for its value is proposed and illustrated by some examples.
