• Resumen

  • In this paper, under a nonparametric context, some estimators for the mean and the offspring distribution of a controlled branching process are provided. Their conditional and unconditional moments and their asymptotic properties (consistency, normality) are investigated. Finally, as an illustration, a simulated example is presented.
