Abstract

The density estimation problem under bias and multiplicative censoring is considered. Adopting the wavelet approach, we construct a linear nonadaptive estimator and a nonlinear adaptive estimator. The adaptive one belongs to the family of the hard thresholding estimators. We evaluate their performances by determining upper bounds of the mean integrated squared error over a wide range of functions. Sharp upper bounds are obtained.
