Model-Free Curve Estimation (Chapman & Hall/CRC Monographs on Statistics & Applied Probability)

Model-Free Curve Estimation details the Fourier series approach to density estimation and explores how model-free technology can be expanded to deal with other statistical curves, such as survival and regression functions. It also describes the implementation of some curves for exploratory data analysis, including a specialized curve for detecting and analyzing hidden subpopulations in data and a family of curves useful for finding the best transformation and model to use in a statistical analysis.
