Abstract
The mean residual life function is of interest in many fields such as reliability, survival analysis, actuarial studies, etc. Given a sample from an unknown distribution function, we use the local linear fitting technique to estimate the corresponding mean residual life function. The limit behaviour of the obtained estimator is presented.
