Aggregating density estimators: an empirical study

We present some new density estimation algorithms obtained by bootstrap aggregation like Bagging. Our algorithms are analyzed and empirically compared to other methods found in the statistical literature, like stacking and boosting for density estimation. We show by extensive simulations that ensemble learning are effective for density estimation like for classification. Although our algorithms do not always outperform other methods, some of them are as simple as bagging, more intuitive and has computational lower cost.
