An Evaluation of the Accuracy of Kernel Density Estimators for Home Range Analysis
Abstract
Kernel density estimators are becoming more widely used, particularly as home range estimators. Despite extensive interest in their theoretical properties, little empirical research has been done to investigate their performance as home range estimators. We used computer simulations to compare the area and shape of kernel density estimates to the true area and shape of multimodal two—dimensional distributions. The fixed kernel gave area estimates with very little bias when least squares cross validation was used to select the smoothing parameter. The cross—validated fixed kernel also gave surface estimates with the lowest error. The adaptive kernel overestimated the area of the distribution and had higher error associated with its surface estimate.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
