Abstract:

Procedures for estimating the probability density curve of the distribution from which a single sample of size n has been taken will often produce curves which are quite erratic and require much smoothing. We consider a simple method of density estimation which will produce smooth curve estimates without applying any smoother. We apply the method to both symmetric as well as skewed distributions.
