Abstract: Using an information theoretic principle, maximum entropy, a density estimator which preserves the observed mass and mean, is derived. It is proved to be pointwise consistent and asymptotically normal. This estimator is shown to have good asymptotic efficiency properties relative to the Kernel, other histograms and the nearest neighbour estimators. Simulation results are also presented. |
