Density Smoothing Bandwidth Computation Method

Use the drop-down menu to select the method used to compute the bandwidth for density smoothing.

Methods include: the Sheather-Jones Plug In (SJPI), the Simple Normal Reference (SNR), the Silverman Rule of Thumb (SROT), and the Oversmoothed method (OS).

Note: Selecting SJPI can provide more refined results than the other methods, but this method is more computationally intensive.
