#'Smoothing splines and KDE fits to joint distribution of height and weight residuals pre-calculated from NHANES height, weight, and age data by race/ethnicity and gender.
spline_heightweight
A data.table with 6 variables:
g
Gender: Male or Female
r
Race/ethnicity: Mexican American, Other Hispanic, Non-Hispanic White, Non-Hispanic Black, Other
height_spline
A list of smooth.spline objects, each giving a smoothed relationship between log height in cm and age in months
weight_spline
A list of smooth.spline objects, each giving a smoothed relationship between log body weight in kg and age in months
hw_kde
A list of kde objects; each is a 2-D KDE of the distribution of log height and log body weight residuals about the smoothing splines.
