 Gaussian density kernel

The Gaussian density kernel is the standard normal probability density used as a unit-integral kernel for density estimation. Its second moment is one and $R(K_N)=1/(2\sqrt{\pi })$. Its canonical kernel has scale $(2\sqrt{\pi }{)}^{-1/5}$. It is a function of one smoothing displacement, distinct from the two-argument Gaussian kernel used as a positive-semidefinite kernel.
