We propose a nonparametric procedure for detecting and dating multiple change points in the correlation matrix of a sequence of random variables. The procedure is based on a test for changes in correlation matrices at an unknown point in time recently proposed by Wied (2014). Although the...

Proofs for the consistency of the kernel density estimator have historically developed. Four important milestones are the pointwise consistency, the almost sure uniform convergence, the rate of convergence on a bounded interval and the rate of convergence on R. The underlying concepts of total...
