A Note on Consistency of the Bayes Estimator of the Density
Abstract
Under mild conditions, it is shown the strong consistency of the Bayes estimator of the density. Moreover, the Bayes risk (for some common loss functions) of the Bayes estimator of the density (i.e. the posterior predictive density) reaches zero when the sample size goes to ∞. In passing, a similar result is obtained for the estimation of the sampling distribution.
