Y1 - 1998/// N2 - We propose a new estimator of unconditional residual variance in nonparametric regression based on the integral of squared residuals. We show its consistency in L1 under general conditions and derive a nonparametric decomposition of the variance formula. Monte-Carlo experiments suggest that the estimator has good small sample properties.
