estVarMKDE | R Documentation |
Estimates the move variance for the (x, y) and z dimensions and altitude for a Brownian bridge MKDE.
estVarMKDE(move.dat)

A move data object created with |
Computes maximum-likelihood estimates for move variances. If the MKDE is 2D or 2.5D, only the variance for the xy-dimension is estimated. If the MKDE is 3D, a separate move variance for the z-dimension is also estimated.
