bw: Kernel density bandwidth estimators.

In alR: Arc Lengths of Statistical Functions

Description

Calculate the bandwidth estimator using various methods.

Usage

Silverman2(x)

bw(x, type)

Arguments

x	A vector of data points.
type	One of the following options: -1: Silverman's rule of thumb. -2: Silverman's adapted rule of thumb. >0: The real number is returned without any calculations.

Value

Silverman: Bandwidth estimator based on Silverman's rule of thumb.

Silverman2: Bandwidth estimator based on Silverman's adapted rule of thumb.

bw: Bandwidth estimator based on the selected method.

Examples

x <- rnorm(100)
Silverman(x)

Silverman2(x)

bw(x, -1)
