Abstract

Let (XN)N1(X_N)_{N\geq 1} denote a sequence of real random variables and let ϑ\vartheta be the mode of the random variable of interest XX. In this paper, we study the kernel mode estimator (say) ϑn\vartheta_n when the data are widely orthant dependent (WOD) and subject to Random Left Truncation (RLT) mechanism. We establish the uniform consistency rate of the density estimator (say) fnf_n of the underlying density ff as well as the almost sure convergence rate of ϑn\vartheta_n. The performance of the estimators are illustrated via some simulation studies and applied on a real dataset of car brake pads.
