In JonasMoss/polygrams: Density Estimation with Mixtures of Disjoint Bernstein Polynomials

polygrams

The polygrams package implements Bernstein polygrams, a class of non-parametric density estimators for univariate densities on bounded intervals.

Note: Bernstein polygrams are currently not described in detail anywhere, but expect a paper on arXiv shortly.

Installation

Install the package using devtools from inside R.

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("JonasMoss/polygrams")

Example Usage

The core function polygram calculates a Bernstein polygram from x.

library("polygrams")
#> Loading required package: Rcpp
#> Loading required package: RcppArmadillo
hist(iris$Sepal.Length, freq = FALSE, main = "Sepal length", xlab = "Length", ylim = c(0, 0.5))
lines(polygram(iris$Sepal.Length, support = c(4, 9), s = 3))
#> [1] 0.25 0.50 0.75
rug(iris$Sepal.Length)
