Difference between density plot and 1D Kernel density plot on Knime?

As the title mentions, I was wondering what the difference is between these two nodes? They give me different graphs but I am not sure which one I should be using…

Hello @GhazwanG,

They are both similar and can be used interchangeably, but depending on if you need more options with the type of bandwidth estimation used or for the type of kernel estimator you want you can pick the 1D kernel density over the density plot. If you do not need that much granularity, then I would suggest the Density Plot as it is more simple.

If you need more info on the options the 1D kernel density offers, you can find it here:

Hope this helps,
