Description
This paper concerns estimating a probability density function $f$ based on iid observations from $g(x)=W^{-1} w(x) f(x)$, where the weight function $w$ and the total weight $W=\int w(x) f(x) dx$ may not be known. The length-biased and excess life distribution models are considered. The asymptotic normality and the rate of convergence in mean squared error (MSE) of the estimators are studied.
