A fast algorithm is proposed for choosing the blur factors of kernel functions of a non-parametric probability density estimate under conditions of large-scale statistical data. It is shown that the basis of the algorithm is the result of a study of the asymptotic properties of a new kernel probability density estimate. The properties of the developed algorithm are analyzed and the method of its application is formulated.
