Kernel: Symmetric Smoothing Kernels.

Description

Represent symmetric smoothing kernels:: normal, cosine, triweight, quartic and uniform.

	Ker.norm=dnorm(u)
	Ker.cos=ifelse(abs(u)<=1,pi/4*(cos(pi*u/2)),0)
	Ker.epa=ifelse(abs(u)<=1,3/4*(1-u^2),0)
	Ker.tri=ifelse(abs(u)<=1,35/32*(1-u^2)^3,0)
	Ker.quar=ifelse(abs(u)<=1,15/16*(1-u^2)^2,0)
	Ker.unif=ifelse(abs(u)<=1,1/2,0)

Usage

Kernel(u,type.Ker="Ker.norm")
Ker.norm(u)
Ker.cos(u)
Ker.epa(u)
Ker.tri(u)
Ker.quar(u)
Ker.unif(u)

Arguments

type.Ker

Type of Kernel. By default normal kernel.

u

Data.

Value

res

Returns symmetric kernel.

Details

Type of kernel:

	Normal Kernel: Ker.norm
	Cosine Kernel: Ker.cos
	Epanechnikov Kernel: Ker.epa
	Triweight Kernel: Ker.tri
	Quartic Kernel: Ker.quar
