  2. Kernel density estimation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_density_estimation

    Kernel density estimation of 100 normally distributed random numbers using different smoothing bandwidths.. In statistics, kernel density estimation (KDE) is the application of kernel smoothing for probability density estimation, i.e., a non-parametric method to estimate the probability density function of a random variable based on kernels as weights.

  3. Kernel (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_(statistics)

    The first requirement ensures that the method of kernel density estimation results in a probability density function. The second requirement ensures that the average of the corresponding distribution is equal to that of the sample used. If K is a kernel, then so is the function K* defined by K*(u) = λK(λu), where λ > 0. This can be used to ...

  4. Density estimation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_Estimation

    The density estimates are kernel density estimates using a Gaussian kernel. That is, a Gaussian density function is placed at each data point, and the sum of the density functions is computed over the range of the data. From the density of "glu" conditional on diabetes, we can obtain the probability of diabetes conditional on "glu" via Bayes ...

  5. Multivariate kernel density estimation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multivariate_kernel...

    The previous figure is a graphical representation of kernel density estimate, which we now define in an exact manner. Let x 1, x 2, ..., x n be a sample of d-variate random vectors drawn from a common distribution described by the density function ƒ. The kernel density estimate is defined to be

  6. Epanechnikov distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epanechnikov_distribution

    In probability theory and statistics, the Epanechnikov distribution, also known as the Epanechnikov kernel, is a continuous probability distribution that is defined on a finite interval. It is named after V. A. Epanechnikov, who introduced it in 1969 in the context of kernel density estimation .

  7. Kernel regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_regression

    Python: the KernelReg class for mixed data types in the statsmodels.nonparametric sub-package (includes other kernel density related classes), the package kernel_regression as an extension of scikit-learn (inefficient memory-wise, useful only for small datasets) R: the function npreg of the np package can perform kernel regression. [7] [8]

  8. Variable kernel density estimation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_kernel_density...

    In statistics, adaptive or "variable-bandwidth" kernel density estimation is a form of kernel density estimation in which the size of the kernels used in the estimate are varied depending upon either the location of the samples or the location of the test point. It is a particularly effective technique when the sample space is multi-dimensional.

  9. Kernel method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_method

    Kernel methods owe their name to the use of kernel functions, which enable them to operate in a high-dimensional, implicit feature space without ever computing the coordinates of the data in that space, but rather by simply computing the inner products between the images of all pairs of data in the feature space. This operation is often ...
