The MISE of an estimate of an unknown probability density is given by<ref>{{cite book |last1=Wand |first1=M. P. |last2=Jones |first2=M.

:<math>\operatorname{E}\|f_n-f\|_2^2=\operatorname{E}\int (f_n(x)-f(x))^2 \, dx</math>

where ''ƒ'' is the unknown density, ''ƒ''<sub>''n''</sub> is its estimate based on a sample of ''n'' independent and identically distributed random variables. Here, E denotes the expected value with respect to that sample.

The MISE is also known as ''L''<sup>2</sup> risk function.
