alpha2h: Test Equality of Curves with Homoscedastic or Heteroscedastic Errors.

Description

For each value $at$ in the defining interval, find a bandwidth $h$ so that alpha*100 percent of data points specified in $xseq$ should be within the $(x-h, x+h)$ window. This is a utility function.

Usage

alpha2h(alpha, at, xseq)

Arguments

alpha

Smoothing parameter that for each point in the domain, use a windown width that should have alpha*100 percent of data points falling in the window.

at

a point in the x domain.

xseq

Sequence of the data points.

Examples

    x= runif(100)
    (h=alpha2h(0.3, at=0.5, xseq=x))  ##get the window width h around x=.5 so that 30% data points of xseq fall in the area.
