Kernel density estimation instead of histogram

Open mithrandi opened this issue 9 years ago • 2 comments

I think it would be nice to include this as a complement to the existing histogram out of the box, as a KDE sidesteps the issues with selecting a correct bucket size for the histogram. I'm not really a stats person so I can't explain this very well, but Wikipedia has more info and you can see an example of this in use in the "criterion" benchmarking tool for Haskell: http://www.serpentine.com/criterion/fibber.html

Is there someone interested to implement this idea?
