摘要:Consider a regression model in which the response is subject to random right censoring. The main goal of this paper concerns the kernel estimation of the conditional density function in the case of censored interest variable. We employ a recursive version of the Nadaraya-Watson estimator in this context. The uniform strong consistency of the recursive kernel conditional density estimator is derived. Also, we prove the asymptotic normality of this estimator.
