Abstract

Abstract A nonparametric, robust density estimation method is explored for the analysis of right‐angle distances from a transect line to the objects sighted. The method is based on the F OURIER series expansion of a probability density function over an interval. With only mild assumptions, a general population density estimator of wide applicability is obtained.
