DELTD: An R Package for Kernel Density Estimation using Lifetime Distributions
Authors: , ,
Abstract: The R package DELTD is for estimating densities by asymmetrical kernels and calculating MSE. This package is to estimate densities that are free of boundary bias. The major concern of the package is to enhance its usefulness in performing inference regarding stated kernels. For this purpose, some lifetime distributions, i.e. Beta, Birnbaum-Saunders, Erlang, Gamma, and Lognormal are considered here due to their usefulness in life data analysis, where their estimated values for density estimation can also be observed. Tuna data is also presented in this package. By using these kernels, densities will be free of boundary problems. This package is a collection of asymmetrical kernels which belong to the lifetime distribution.
