No, multivariate KDE is actually a different beast than single
variable KDE and is not yet implemented in cpptraj. However, choosing
bin sizes for histograms really isn't that big a deal; just make sure
you choose enough bins that you get decent resolution. For example, if
my PC covers a spread of 80 Angstroms, 200 bins will provide good
resolution (0.4 Ang step size) and assuming I am binning much more
than 200 points (say 50k) the resulting histogram won't be too sparse.
Alternative, you could specify a step size instead of the number of
bins (with 'step').
