+%
+% Computes and plots the -2*AIC
+% for local fits with different smoothing parameters.
+%
+% The first argument to aicplot(), alpha, should be a matrix with one
+% or two columns (first column = nearest neighbor component, second
+% column = constant component). Each row of this matrix is, in turn,
+% passed as the 'alpha' argument to aic() (and locfit()). The results
+% are stored in a matrix, and aic score ploted against the degrees of
+% freedom.
