Abstract

A smooth and detailed distribution is fitted to coarsely grouped frequency data by a nonparametric approach, based on penalized maximum likelihood. The estimated distribution conserves mean and variance of the data. The numerical solution is described and a compact and simplified algorithm is given. The procedure is applied to two empirical datasets.
