What I've seen and what I've got :-)
I mentioned "seeing" a better approach to solve a probability distribution problem. Well, here is what I've seen (ok, I didn't see those colors, but that was the shape, anyway :-).
As usual, that was only the first step. It took some effort to move from vision to reality. Here is what I've got: the red and blue curves are two sections of the surface, instantiated on a specific problem. The purple curve helps finding the best x coordinate, and therefore a pair of points on the red and blue curve. I'm very, very close to a solution :-).
Now all I have to do is write down a few pages to explain myself :-) what I've done, to make sure I'm [still] on the right track. Then I'll try out the idea on a few experimental data I have collected, and see how good it is at predicting the future :-).
