dc.descriptionThis paper considers estimation of a univariate density from an individual numerical sequence. It is assumed that (i) the limiting relative frequencies of the numerical sequence are governed by an unknown density, and (ii) there is a known upper bound for the variation of the density on an increasing sequence of intervals. A simple estimation scheme is proposed, and is shown to be $L_1$ consistent when (i) and (ii) apply. In addition it is shown that there is no consistent estimation scheme for the set of individual sequences satisfying only condition (i).
