Abstract
A quite extensive literature exists on the estimation of the mode of univariate distributions. On the contrary, few works deal with mode estimation in the multivariate case.With this work, we introduce a procedure to estimate the mode of an unimodal multivariate distribution, that we call minimum volume peeling. Properties, robustness, and implementing issues are briefly discussed.File in questo prodotto:
