Binning of kernel-based projection pursuit indices in XGobi

The software XGobi offers a selection of different index functions to be used in exploratory projection pursuit (EPP). EPP is a method for finding interesting low-dimensional (in this case two-dimensional) projections of high-dimensional data. We discuss the inclusion of two additional index functio...

Summary:The software XGobi offers a selection of different index functions to be used in exploratory projection pursuit (EPP). EPP is a method for finding interesting low-dimensional (in this case two-dimensional) projections of high-dimensional data. We discuss the inclusion of two additional index functions which make use of several standard techniques to improve the speed of the indices based on kernel density estimation. Unfortunately, the speed improvements do not apply to derivative calculations, but then are seldomly required in XGobi so speed does not matter much.
