I have two different density plots in R- one of them is the observed data (x1), and the other is randomly generated data from a Poisson distribution with the observed mean (x2). I would like to approximate the curves, i.e. make the expected curve look more like the observed data as it is over and under-estimated in certain areas. How do I go about doing this? I know you can get the absolute value between the curves by using
abs (x1 - x2)
However I'm not too sure how to proceed. Anybody have any ideas?
