Syntax

The following table describes the keywords and options that can be used with this action

Keyword Type Default Description
ARG input none the label for the value that should be used to construct the histogram
GRID_MIN compulsory auto the lower bounds for the grid
GRID_MAX compulsory auto the upper bounds for the grid
METRIC compulsory none the inverse covariance to use for the kernels that are added to the grid
CUTOFF compulsory 6.25 the cutoff at which to stop evaluating the kernel functions is set equal to sqrt(2x)bandwidth in each direction where x is this number
KERNEL compulsory GAUSSIAN the kernel function you are using
CONCENTRATION compulsory none the concentration parameter for Von Mises-Fisher distributions (only required for SPHERICAL_KDE)
SERIAL optional false do the calculation in serial
HEIGHTS optional not used this keyword takes the label of an action that calculates a vector of values
VOLUMES optional not used this keyword take the label of an action that calculates a vector of values
BANDWIDTH optional not used the bandwidths for kernel density esimtation
GRID_BIN optional not used the number of bins for the grid
IGNORE_IF_OUT_OF_RANGE optional false if a kernel is outside of the range of the grid it is safe to ignore
GRID_SPACING optional not used the approximate grid spacing (to be used as an alternative or together with GRID_BIN)
