For α > 1, all points are used, with the `maximum distance'
assumed to be α times the actual maximum distance.
</SNIP>
I understand the situation when alpha is less than one, presuming it
uses the same convention set forth in any number of Clevelend and Devlin
articles, ie, nearest neighbor smoothing.
However, I'm interested in looking at fixed bandwidth smoothing and I'm
wondering if the second option, (alpha>1) is some variation of this
theme. I don't understand the "alpha times actual maxdistance"
statement. If...
