Nonparametric Estimates of Low Bias

Revstat Statistical Journal, 2012
We consider the problem of estimating an arbitrary smooth functional of k ≥ 1 distribution functions (d.f.s) in terms of random samples from them. The natural estimate replaces the d.f.s by their empirical d.f.s. Its bias is generally ∼ n−1 , where n is
