Bandwidth selection: classical or plug-in?
带宽选择:经典方法还是插件法?
Bandwidth selection for procedures such as kernel density estimation and local regression have been widely studied over the past decade. Substantial “evidence” has been collected to establish superior performance of modern plug-in methods in comparison to methods such as cross validation; this has ranged from detailed analysis of rates of convergence, to simulations, to superior performance on real datasets. In this work we take a detailed look at some of this evidence,…
