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

## Estimating Distribution Fun c ti o ns The harder you fight to hold on to specific assumptions, the more likely there's gold in letting go of them. John Seely Brown. former Chief Scientist at Xerox Corporation ### 10.1 Introduction Let X I , X z , . . . , X , be a sample from a population wit
The paper considers the problem of estimating the dependence function of a bivariate extreme survival function with standard exponential marginals. Nonparametric estimators for the dependence function are proposed and their strong uniform convergence under suitable conditions is demonstrated. Compar
