Kernel density estimation in Rust.
Kernel density estimation (KDE) is a non-parametric method to estimate the probability density function of a random variable by taking the summation of kernel functions centered on each data point. This crate serves three major purposes based on this idea:
- Evaluate the probability density function of a random variable.
- Evaluate the cumulative distribution function of a random variable.
- Sample data points from the probability density function.
An excellent technical description of the method is available here1.
