Abstract
Let X1,…,Xnbe i.i.d. random with density functionf(x), which has the shape of a steep head and a heave tail such as log-normal and Weibull density function. Consider a transformation T:Yi=T(Xi), where Yi obey a density function g(y) which has a minimum error of estimate. The estimatef(x)can be obtained byf(x)= T'(x)g(T(x)). In this paper we present a iterative algorithm of the transformed kernel estimate and discuss the performance of estimate. A Monte Carlo simulations show that the transformed kernel estimate is suitable for the estimate of log-normal and Weibull density function.
