Supergaussian pdfs are those which have a greater probability around zero or the mean, whatever it may be than the gaussian distribution, and are consequently more sharply peaked much like your example. Matlab provides some special expressions for some mathematical symbols, like pi for. The freq input argument typically contains nonnegative integer counts for the corresponding elements in x, but can contain any nonnegative values to obtain the weighted mles for a data set with censoring, specify weights of observations, normalized to the number of observations in x.
