This study considers the problem of estimating the population distribution of independent random variables from error-contaminated samples. The measurement error is also assumed to be normally distributed. Since the observed distribution function is a convolution of the error distribution with the true underlying distribution, estimation of the latter is often referred to as a deconvolution problem. A thorough study of the relevant deconvolution literature in statistics is reported. The intention is to draw more specific connections between certain deconvolution methods and also to demonstrate…mehr
