Kernel density estimators have been studied in great detail. In this note a new family of kernels, depending on a parameter c , is obtained by kernel-smoothing an initial kernel density estimator. Under certain conditions, we show that nonparametric

Bernstein estimators attracted considerable attention as smooth nonparametric estimators for distribution functions, densities, copulas and copula densities. The present paper adds a parallel result for the first-order derivative of a copula function

We introduce the notion of the probability weighted characteristic function (PWCF) as a generalization of the characteristic function. Some of the properties of the PWCF and of its empirical counterpart are studied and the potential use of these quan

Energy costs play a major role in the cement production process. As much as 60% of total cost is allocated to energy and 18% to the consumption of electrical energy. Historically, energy cost savings were achieved by large infrastructure upgrades. Th

Electricity costs in South Africa are increasing rapidly, and the funding hurdle rates for energy conservation incentives are decreasing. Therefore, with rising international competition and increasing operational costs, marginal industries need to f

Bernstein polynomial estimators have been used as smooth estimators for density functions and distribution functions. The idea of using them for copula estimation has been given in Sancetta and Satchell (2004) . In the present paper we study the asym

A new characterisation of the exponential distribution in a wide class of new better than used in pth quantile (NBUp) lifetime distributions is presented. This leads to new classes of scale-free goodness-of-fit tests for exponentiality against NBUp a

Several test statistics have been proposed recently which employ a weighted distance that depends on an empirical transform, as well as on estimated parameters. The empirical characteristic function is a typical example, but alternative empirical tra

We explore the convergence rates of a kernel-based distribution function estimator with variable bandwidth. As in density estimation, a considerable bias reduction from O(h 2) to O(h 4) can be obtained by replacing the bandwidth h by h/f 1/2(X i ). W
