[R] KDE routines for data that is aggregated

If the x and y values are regularly spaced, you could use contour() or persp() to plot the densities. If they are not, you can use density(), loess(), gam(), kriging another function to estimate a smooth surface for the values and then estimate the values over a regular grid and then plot with contour, etc.

Subject: [R] KDE routines for data that is aggregated

Hello,
Couldn't think of a better subject line. Rather than a matrix like

x,y
..,..
.,..

I have a matrix like
x,y,n,
..,..,..,
..,..,..

and so on. Also, sum(n) is roughly few hundred million. The number of rows
is <1MM

Are they routines to fit a 2d kde estimate to data provided in this form?
I can sample from the data according to weights given by 'n' but i am
curious if there is something that can use all the data when given a
structure of this form.

Regards
Saptarshi
