This function performs an estimation of \(L_0\) used for the estimation of the bandwidth for a univariate kernel regression estimator defined over continuous domains data.

estimate_constant(curves_smooth, regularity)

Arguments

curves_smooth

List, resulting from the presmoothing function.

regularity

Numeric, estimation of the regularity of the curves and resulting from the the estimate_regularity function.

Value

Numeric, an estimation of \(L_0\) at \(t_0\).
