In this note we consider the problem of, given a sample, selecting the number of bins in a histogram. A loss function is introduced which reflects the idea that smooth distributions should have fewer bins than rough distributions. A stepwise Bayes rule, based on the Bayesian bootstrap, is found and
Sir: It is well known that the most applied criteria for determining the number of underlying factors from a data matrix being factor-analyzed are the Malinowski's indicator @ND) function [l] and the Wold's double cross-validation (DCV) procedure [2]. Recently, we have proposed another proof that is
