A kernel method is proposed to estimate the condensed density of the generalized eigenvalues of pencils of Hankel matrices whose elements have a joint noncentral Gaussian distribution with nonidentical covariance. These pencils arise when…

We consider bandwidth matrix selection for kernel density estimators (KDEs) of density level sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d \ge 2$. We also consider estimation of highest density regions, which differs from estimating level sets in that one…
