ProbDistKernel class - Superclasses: ProbDist

Object representing nonparametric probability distribution defined by kernel smoothing

Description

ProbDistKernel is an abstract class defining the properties and methods of a nonparametric distribution defined by a kernel smoothing function.

Construction

ProbDistKernel is an abstract class. You cannot create instances of this class directly. You can construct an object in a subclass, ProbDistUnivKernel, either by calling the subclass constructor, ProbDistUnivKernel, or by using the fitdist function.

Methods

cdf	Return cumulative distribution function (CDF) for ProbDist object
pdf	Return probability density function (PDF) for ProbDist object
random	Generate random number drawn from ProbDist object

Note The above methods are inherited from the ProbDist class.

Properties

BandWidth	Read-only value specifying bandwidth of kernel smoothing function for ProbDistKernel object
DistName	Read-only string containing probability distribution name of ProbDist object
InputData	Read-only structure containing information about input data to ProbDist object
Kernel	Read-only string specifying name of kernel smoothing function for ProbDistKernel object
Support	Read-only structure containing information about support of ProbDist object

Note Some of the above properties are inherited from the ProbDist class.
