Abstract
The problem of estimating the marginal density of a linear process by kernel methods is considered. Under general conditions, kernel density estimators are shown to be asymptotically normal. Their limiting cova riance matrix is computed. We also find the optimal bandwidth in the s ense that it asymptotically minimizes the mean square error of the est imators. The assumptions involved are easily verifiable.
