Kernel Density Estimation
Sampling distribution
data(mtcars) hist(mtcars$mpg)
Colored Histogram with Different Number of Bins
hist(mtcars$mpg, breaks=12, col="red")
Kernel Density Plot
d <- density(mtcars$mpg) # returns the density data plot(d) # plots the results
Kernel Density Plot with 1/3rd bandwith
d <- density(mtcars$mpg,adjust = 1/3) # returns the density data plot(d) # plots the results
Kernel Density Plot with 2x bandwith
d <- density(mtcars$mpg,adjust = 2) # returns the density data plot(d) # plots the results
Kernel Density Plot with a rectangular kernel
d <- density(mtcars$mpg, kernel = "rectangular") # returns the density data plot(d) # plots the results
Kernel Density Plot with the Epanechnikov kernel
d <- density(mtcars$mpg, kernel = "epanechnikov") # returns the density data plot(d) # plots the results
