Before revision:  Assuming that a small number of initial samples are available, we derive the optimal training density that minimizes the generalization error of local polynomial smoothing (LPS) with its kernel bandwidth tuned locally: We adopt the mean integrated squared error (MISE) as a generalization criterion, and use the asymptotic behavior of the MISE as well as thelocally optimal bandwidths (LOB) -- the bandwidth function that minimizes MISE in the asymptotic limit.
