Rotational Velocity of Stars
Description
A sample of rotational velocities of stars from Hoffleit and
Warren (1991) similar to that previosly considered by Pal, Woodroofe and Meyer (2007)
and used by Koenker and Mizera (2010). The demo(velo) illustrates fitted
densities for three relatively weak concavity constraints corresponding to
-1/sqrt(f), -1/f and -1/f^2 constrained to be concave.
Note that last of these pushes the optimization methods about as far as they can do.
Usage
velo
Format
A numeric vector with 3933 observations on one variable.
veloa numeric vector with rotational velocities.
