statinf.nonparametrics.kernels.gaussian(X, mu, cov)[source]

Returns the pdf of a Gaussian kernel

Parameters
  • X (numpy.ndarray) – Input data.

  • mu (numpy.ndarray) – Mean of the gaussian distribution.

  • cov (numpy.ndarray) – Covariance matrix.

Formula
\[\dfrac{1}{(2 \pi)^{\frac{n}{2}} \sqrt{\det{\sigma}}} e^{-\dfrac{1}{2} \dfrac{X'X}{\sigma^{2}}}\]
