I use scipy.stats.kde.gaussian_kde for similar purposes. Zach On Dec 11, 2008, at 1:00 PM, Yuni Kim wrote:
Hi,
Can anyone let me know how to make a density plot, more specifically a gaussian-smoothed version of a histogram? I mean, it's not the plot itself, but to get the maximum count (or highest peak) of the density distribution.
In S plus and R, there is the "density" function which I can use to get the max x and y in the probability frequency distribution.
I was told that, in scipy, there is a kernel density estimator for non-parametric density estimation, and fit the "Gaussian smoothed version of the histogram" when used with Gaussian kernels. So far I haven't suceeded finding the function.
I really appreciate if anyone can help in any way!
thank you!
