wle (version 0.9-91)

wle.weights: Weights based on Weighted Likelihood for the normal model

Description

This function evaluated the weights for the vector `x` using the vector `y` in the estimation of the density by the kernel density estimator.

Usage

wle.weights(x, y=NULL, smooth=0.0031, sigma2, raf=1, location=FALSE, max.iter=1000, tol=10^(-6))

Arguments

x
the data set for which the weights would be calculate.
y
the data set used to calculate the weights.
smooth
the value of the smoothing parameter.
sigma2
an estimate of the variance.
raf
type of Residual adjustment function to be use:

raf="HD": Hellinger Distance RAF,

raf="NED": Negative Exponential Disparity RAF,

raf="SCHI2": Symmetric Chi-Squared Disparity RAF.

location
if TRUE the location is estimated. Only available when y=NULL.
max.iter
maximum number of iterations.
tol
the absolute accuracy to be used to achieve convergence of the algorithm.

Value

weights
the weights associated to the x vector.
location
the location.
conv
TRUE if the convergence is achived.
