Abstract

Under the assumption that both convolution densities, g and q, have finite degrees of smoothness, we construct a nonlinear wavelet estimator of the unknown density g based on wavelets with bounded supports. We show that this estimator provides local adaptivity to the unknown smoothness of g and, hence, performs better than the estimator based on Meyer-type wavelets if g has irregular behavior.
