Abstract

Algorithms for jointly obtaining projection estimates of the density and distribution function of a random variable using Legendre polynomials are proposed. For these algorithms, a problem of conditional optimization is solved. Such optimization allows one to increase the approximation accuracy with minimum computational costs. The proposed algorithms are tested on examples with different degrees of smoothness of the density. A projection estimate of the density is compared to a histogram that is often used in applications to estimate distributions.
