I have a dataset that have multiple variables with each of them heavily centered around zero to form a high peak. The kurtosis of each variable is more than 100.
What I want to estimate is the probability density of any given value if it belongs to the dataset. The most accessible distribution function I found currently is the multivariant Gaussian distribution. However, since my dataset is not is a normal shape and I am worried that it is inaccurate estimate the probability density using this function.
Does anyone have any good suggestions on which function to use to for this purpose?
