In this paper, we construct a nonlinear wavelet estimator of conditional density function for a left truncation model. We provide an asymptotic expression for the mean integrated squared error (MISE) of the estimator. It is assumed that the lifetime observations form a stationary α-mixing sequence. Unlike for kernel estimator, the MISE expression of the nonlinear wavelet estimator is not affected by the presence of discontinuities in the curves.

In this paper, we provide an asymptotic expression for mean integrated squared error (MISE) of nonlinear wavelet density estimator for a truncation model. It is assumed that the lifetime observations form a stationary α-mixing sequence. Unlike for kernel estimator, the MISE expression of the nonlinear wavelet estimator is not affected by the presence of discontinuities in the curves. Also, we establish asymptotic normality of the nonlinear wavelet estimator.

We consider the estimation of an unknown functionffor weakly dependent data (α-mixing) in a general setting. Our contribution is theoretical: we prove that a hard thresholding wavelet estimator attains a sharp rate of convergence under the mean integrated squared error (MISE) over Besov balls without imposing too restrictive assumptions on the model. Applications are given for two types of inverse problems: the deconvolution density estimation and the density estimation in a GARCH-type model, both improve existing results in this dependent context. Another application concerns the regression model with random design.

This article is based on the works of [1], [2] and [3] on the estimation of the survival function and the function of risk in independent cases and identically distributed with and without censorship from which we established the bias and variance of the density of the circular kernel. In addition, we determined the optimal window b ∗ n of this estimator after having first established the mean square error (MSE) and mean integrated squared error (MISE) which are necessary conditions for obtaining the optimal window. Finally, we have established the asymptotic expression of the bias of the risk function of the circular kernel estimator

<div>A transmetric is a generalization of a metric that is tailored to properties needed in kernel density estimation.  Using transmetrics in kernel density estimation is an intuitive way to make assumptions on the kernel of the distribution to improve convergence orders and to reduce the number of dimensions in the graphical display.  This framework is required for discussing the estimators that are suggested by Hovda (2014).</div><div> </div><div>Asymptotic arguments for the bias and the mean integrated squared error is difficult in the general case, but some results are given when the transmetric is of the type defined in Hovda (2014).  An important contribution of this paper is that the convergence order can be as high as $4/5$, regardless of the number of dimensions.</div>

This work proposes a resampling technique to approximate the smoothing parameter of Beran’s estimator. It is based on resampling by the smoothed bootstrap and minimising the bootstrap approximation of the mean integrated squared error to find the bootstrap bandwidth. The behaviour of this method has been tested by simulation on several models. Bootstrap confidence intervals are also addressed in this research and their performance is analysed in the simulation study.
