PURPOSE ^

Local Regression and Likelihood, Figure 8.2.

SYNOPSIS ^

This is a script file.

DESCRIPTION ^

 Local Regression and Likelihood, Figure 8.2.

 Discrimination/Classification, simple example using
 density estimation.

 First, compute density estimates fit0, fit1 ('family','rate'
 - output is in events per unit area) for each class in the
 training sample. The ratio fit1/(fit1+fit0) estimates the
 posterior probability that an observation comes from population 1.

 plotting the classification boundary is slightly tricky - it depends
 on both fits, so lfplot() can't be used. Instead, both fits must be
 evaluated on the same grid of values, which is then used to make a
 contour plot.
