    How to calculate the bandwidth for a Kernel density estimation

    Hi, I read the paper and tried to understand, especially section 5.2. . But all details of the bandwidth estimation are not completely clear for me. However this is a requirement if I need to estimate the bandwidth by myself. As mentioned in the previous post, I found some sources which are...

    How to calculate the bandwidth for a Kernel density estimation

    Thanks a lot for the answer. There are many toolboxes in Matlab or in Python. Even I tried to use some applets. It has shown that the bandwidth is a major factor that influences the estimated density of a distribution. Moreover the bandwidth estimation must run automatically. I am suppose to...

    How to calculate the bandwidth for a Kernel density estimation

    Thanks a lot for your reply. I have read about the plug - in method. To be honest I couldn't completely figure out how to use it. For instance in the section you mentioned -- 5.2. -- on page 11. I am not sure how to compute step (1), how to estimate σ^. or what is H(.) in step 3? By the way...

    How to calculate the bandwidth for a Kernel density estimation

    Hello everybody! Since some time I am trying the estimate the density of a set of numbers (in my case the numbers are distances to some object from a laser scanner). As I read, that the kernel density estimation technique is a basic approach for that kind of problem. Different Kernels can...
