Beta Kernel Estimator for a Cumulative Distribution Function with Bounded Support [PDF]
Kernel estimation of the cumulative distribution function (CDF), when the support of the data is bounded, suffers from bias at the boundaries. To solve this problem, we introduce a new estimator for the CDF with support (0,1) based on the beta kernel ...

On the fourth-order hybrid beta polynomial kernels in kernel density estimation
This paper introduces a novel family of fourth-order hybrid beta polynomial kernels tailored for statistical analysis. The efficacy of these kernels is evaluated using two principal performance metrics: asymptotic mean integrated squared error (AMISE ...

Nonparametric direct density ratio estimation using beta kernel [PDF]
A new nonparametric density ratio estimator using the beta kernel is proposed. It is shown that the beta kernel density ratio estimator (KDRE) is free of boundary or tail bias, and the asymptotic p...

Curve fitting of the corporate recovery rates: the comparison of Beta distribution estimation and kernel density estimation. [PDF]
Recovery rate is essential to the estimation of the portfolio's loss and economic capital. Neglecting the randomness of the distribution of recovery rate may underestimate the risk.
