Survival time is smoothed using Kernal density methods with a uniform kernel with bandwidth 4. The kernel function generally peaks at the center and decay as it moves away from the center. Kernel density estimation is a method to obtain smooth approximations of a distribution through nonparametric techniques. A hard paragraph for Kernel Smoothing in ASM Exam 4/C - Construction and Evaluation of Actuarial Models. Figure 4 demonstrates the average preprocessed spectra of T. It is basically a sort of smoothing. Knutson and Sacchet found that when researchers process fMRI data with a traditional "smoothing kernel" of 8mm, they end up averaging their images over too large an area. When we are dealing with kernel smoothing, we have a mixture that is based on the empirical distribution. Well yes there are several, but I think Kernel Density plots (KDP) are a more effective way to illustrate the distribution of a variable. This is now surprisingly easy to do.
