Let (, ) be a space with a σ‐field, M = { P s ; s o} a family of probability measures on A, Θ arbitrary, X 1 ,…,X n independently and identically distributed P random variables. Metrize Θ with the L 1 distance between measures, and assume identifiability. Minimum‐distance estimators are constructed that relate rates of convergence with Vapnik‐Cervonenkis exponents when M is “regular”. An alternative construction of estimates is offered via Kolmogorov's chain argument.
