von Mises |
|
The von Mises distribution is a natural distribution
for directions in R2, circular attributes,
e.g., angle, time of day, day of the year, phase of the moon, etc..
It is a special case, where "The von Mises distribution M(μ,κ) has a
mean direction μ and concentration parameter κ.
For small κ it tends to a uniform distribution and
for large κ it tends to a Normal Distribution with
variance 1/κ."
