This book presents a study of statistical inferences based on the kernel-type estimators of distribution functions. The inferences involve matters such as quantile estimation nonparametric tests and mean residual life expectation to name just some. Convergence rates for the kernel estimators of density functions are slower than ordinary parametric estimators which have root-n consistency. If the appropriate kernel function is used the kernel estimators of the distribution functions recover the root-n consistency and the inferences based on kernel distribution estimators have root-n consistency. Further the kernel-type estimator produces smooth estimation results. The estimators based on the empirical distribution function have discrete distribution and the normal approximation cannot be improved-that is the validity of the Edgeworth expansion cannot be proved. If the support of the population density function is bounded there is a boundary problem namely the estimator does not have consistency near the boundary. The book also contains a study of the mean squared errors of the estimators and the Edgeworth expansion for quantile estimators.
