摘要
We consider a weighted, nonparametric density estimator for stratified samples. We derive the optimal bandwidth using information oil within-stratum variances and means. We provide a plug-in bandwidth when all strata are normally distributed. We show that the optimal sampling scheme is stratified sampling proportional to size, irrespective of the stratum-specific densities. (c) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
