C_ICV {ICV}R Documentation

The ICV rescaling constant.

Description

Computing the ICV rescaling constant defined by expression (3) of Savchuk, Hart, and Sheather (2010).

Usage

C_ICV(alpha, sigma)

Arguments

alpha

first parameter of the selection kernel,

sigma

second parameter of the selection kernel.

Details

Calculation of the ICV rescaling constant C defined by (3) in Savchuk, Hart, and Sheather (2010). The constant is a function of the parameters (\alpha,\sigma) of the selection kernel L_ICV defined by expression (4) in the same article. The Gaussian kernel is to be used for computing the ultimate density estimate.

Value

The ICV rescaling constant C.
