We consider the problem of estimating a density $f_X$ using a sample $Y_1,...,Y_n$ from $f_Y=f_X\star f_{\epsilon}$, where $f_{\epsilon}$ is an unknown density. We assume that an additional sample $\epsilon_1,...,\epsilon_m$ from…
In some applications (e.g., in cosmology and economics), the regression E[Z|x] is not adequate to represent the association between a predictor x and a response Z because of multi-modality and asymmetry of f(z|x); using the full density…
