Hi, I have a vector or random variables and I'm estimating the density using "bkde" function in the KernSmooth package. The out put contains two vectors (x and y), and the R documentation calls y as the density estimates, but my y-values are not exact density etstimates (since these are numbers larger than 1)! what is y here? Is it possible to get the true estimated density at each value of x? Thanks -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/density-estimate-tp19717793p19717793.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
