Purpose

Kernel density plot.

Synopsis

plotkd(x,distname,kernel,userw,translate)

Description

Provides a kernel density plot of the input x and an overlay.

Inputs

  • x = matrix (column vector) in which the sample data is stored.
  • distname = string, optional distribution name to assume as the parent distribution for the sample. Default value is 'normal'.
  • kernel = Integer between 1 and 7 indicating which kernel to use.
1 - Bivwight
2 - Cosine
3 - Epanechnikov {default}
4 - Gaussian
5 - Parzen
6 - Triangle
  • userw = scalar, the optional window width to use in the kernel calculation. If not specified, then the optimal window width is used according to the calculation: translate = scalar, axis translation.

Examples

plotkd(x)

plotkd(x,'normal')
