| Description | The kernel functions (kernels) can be used in many types of non-parametric methods - estimation of the density function of a random variable, estimation of the hazard function or the regression function. These methods belong to the most efficient non-parametric methods. Another non-parametric method uses so-called frames - overcompleted system of functions of some type. This paper compares the kernel smoothing and the frame smoothing with frames of a special kind - the kernel functions are used for their construction. Both the smoothing procedures are applied to environmental data. Obtained results will be presented graphically. |
