Abstract

We propose linear and nonlinear wavelet-based hazard rate estimators where the linear estimator is equivalent to a generalized kernel estimator. An asymptotic formula for the mean integrated squared error (MISE) of the nonlinear wavelet-based hazard rate estimator is provided. It is shown that the MISE formula for the nonlinear estimator is available for hazard rates which are smooth only in a piecewise sense, a feature not available for the kernel estimators.
