On automatic kernel density estimate-based tests for goodness-of-fit
C. Tenreiro
Although estimation and testing are different statistical problems, if we want to use a test statistic based on the Parzen-Rosenblatt estimator to test the hypothesis that the underlying density function $f$ is a member of a location-scale family of probability density functions, it may be found reasonable to choose the smoothing parameter in such a way that the kernel density estimator is an effective estimator of $f$ irrespective of which of the null or the alternative hypothesis is true. In this work we address this question by considering the well-known Bickel-Rosenblatt test statistics which are based on the quadratic distance between the nonparametric kernel estimator and two parametric estimators of $f$ under the null hypothesis.
Keywords: Kernel density estimator; Goodness-of-fit tests; Bickel-Rosenblatt tests; Bandwidth selection.

Visit Alhambra
Tomorrow, Thursday, we will visit the Alhambra. 1. At 7:00 p.m., buses will start leaving from the door of the Hotel Granada Center (in front of the door of the Faculty of Sciences) 2. Upon arrival, groups with guides will be organized. 3. There will be groups in English language. These groups will wait at the destination until the arrival of all buses. 4. After the visit to the Alhambra we will walk to the Carmen de los Mártires to have a cocktail. 5. On the way back, we can go back by bus, which will leave from the same place where they left us at the Alhambra. 6. Although the way to the Alhambra by bus seems long, it really is close to the city. We invite you, whoever wishes, to go down for a pleasant walk. 7. Do not forget to take your Alhambra ticket and your identity card or passport. The document must be the same whose number matches the ticket number you have.
