logKDE (version 0.3.2)

bw.logCV: Optimal CV BW estimation for strictly positive distributions.

Description

Computes least squares cross-validation (CV) bandwidth (BW) for log domain KDE.

Usage

bw.logCV(x, grid = 21, NB = 512)

Arguments

x

numeric vector of the data. Must be strictly positive, will be log transformed during estimation.

grid

number of points used for BW selection CV grid.

NB

number of points at which to estimate the KDE at during the CV loop.

Value

bw the optimal least squares CV bandwidth.
