- datafold.pcfold.estimate_scale(pcm, tol=1e-08, cut_off=None, **estimate_cutoff_params)[source]#
Estimates the Gaussian kernel scale (epsilon) for a Gaussian kernel, given a certain tolerance below which the kernel values are considered zero.
- Parameters:
pcm – Point cloud to estimate the kernel scale with.
tol – Tolerance where the cut_off should be made.
cut_off (
Optional
[float
]) – The tol parameter is ignored and the cut-off is used directly**estimate_cutoff_params – Parameters to handle to method
