Neighbors and neighborhoods: effects on marriage timing

Yabiku, Scott - In: Population Research and Policy Review 25 (2006) 4, pp. 305-327

Studies of neighborhoods can benefit from data and theoretical frameworks that allow them to examine the differences … between neighborhoods and neighbors. Without this distinction, it is unclear if it is characteristics of the people or the … differences between neighbors and neighborhoods and their associations with marriage timing.

Behavior of kernel density estimates and bandwidth selectors for contaminated data sets

MAMMENS, Enno; PARK, Byeong - Center for Operations Research and Econometrics (CORE), … - 1992

In this paper robustness properties are studied for kernel density estimators. A plug-in and least squares cross-validation bandwidth selector are considered. In an asymptotic analysis and in a simulation study it is shown that the robustness of kernel density estimates depends strongly on the...
