Calculate Beta-Skeleton Depth
Calculates the beta-skeleton depth of points w.r.t. a multivariate data set.
depth.betaSkeleton(x, data, beta = 2, distance = "Lp", Lp.p = 2,
mah.estimate = "moment", mah.parMcd = 0.75)x |
Matrix of objects (numerical vector as one object) whose depth is to be calculated; each row contains a d-variate point. Should have the same dimension as |
data |
Matrix of data where each row contains a d-variate point, w.r.t. which the depth is to be calculated. |
beta |
The paremeter defining the positionning of the balls' centers, see Yang and Modarres (2017) for details. By default (together with other arguments) equals |
distance |
A character string defining the distance to be used for determining inclusion of a point into the lens (influence region), see Yang and Modarres (2017) for details. Possibilities are |
Lp.p |
A non-negative number defining the distance's power equal |
mah.estimate |
A character string specifying which estimates to use when calculating sample covariance matrix; can be |
mah.parMcd |
The value of the argument |
Calculates the beta-skeleton depth, see Yang and Modarres (2017). Its particular case, lens depth, see Liu and Modarres (2011), is obtained when beta = 2, distance = "Lp" and Lp.p = 2 (default settings). For tne example of the lens depth, the depth of an observation x is calculated as the portion of lens containing x, with lens being an intersection of two closed balls centered at two sample's points each having radius equal to the distance between these two points.
Numerical vector of depths, one for each row in x; or one depth value if x is a numerical vector.
