In this paper, we will investigate thc nonparametric estimation of the distribution function F of an absolutely continuous random variable. Two methods are analyzed: the first one based on the empirical distribution function, expressed in terms of i.i.d, lattice random variables and, secondly, the k

We describe parameter estimation for the multivariate sub-Gaussian symmetric stable distribution using Monte Carlo EM algorithm. Two augmented vectors are employed in the construction of the posterior joint density of the stable parameters. Gibbs sampling enables the generation of these vectors from
