| merge_hermite {hermiter} | R Documentation |
Merges a list of Hermite estimators
Description
Note that the estimators must be of the same type to be merged i.e. all estimators must have a consistent est_type, either "univariate" or "bivariate". In addition, the N and standardize arguments must be the same for all estimators in order to merge them. Finally, note that exponentially weighted estimators cannot be merged. If the Hermite estimators are not standardized, the merged estimator will be exactly equivalent to constructing a single estimator on the data set formed by combining the data sets used to update the respective hermite_estimator inputs. If the input Hermite estimators are standardized however, then the equivalence will be approximate but still reasonably accurate in most cases.
Usage
merge_hermite(hermite_estimators)
Arguments
hermite_estimators |
A list of hermite_estimator_univar or hermite_estimator_bivar objects. |
Value
An object of class hermite_estimator_univar or hermite_estimator_bivar.
