Calculate depth functions.
1 |
u |
Numerical vector or matrix whose depth is to be calculated. Dimension has to be the same as that of the observations. |
X |
The data as a matrix, data frame or list. If it is a matrix or data frame, then each row is viewed as one multivariate observation. If it is a list, all components must be numerical vectors of equal length (coordinates of observations). |
method |
Character string which determines the depth function. |
threads |
number of threads used in parallel computations. Default value -1 means that all possible cores will be used. |

The Mahalanobis depth
{D}_{MAH}(y, {X} ^ {n}) = \frac{ 1 }{ 1 + {{(y - \bar{x})} ^ {T}}{{S} ^ {-1}}(y - \bar{x}) },
where S denotes the sample covariance matrix {X} ^ {n} .
A symmetric projection depth D≤ft( x, X\right) of a point x \in {{{R}} ^ {d}} , d ≥ 1 is defined as
D≤ft( x, X\right)_{PRO} = {{≤ft[ 1 + su{{p}_{≤ft\| u \right\| = 1}}\frac{ ≤ft| {{u} ^ {T}}x - Med≤ft( {{u} ^ {T}}X\right)\right| }{ MAD≤ft( {{u} ^ {T}}X\right) }\right]} ^ {-1}},
where Med denotes the univariate median, MAD≤ft( Z \right) = Med≤ft(≤ft| Z - Med≤ft( Z \right)\right|\right) . Its sample version denoted by D≤ft( x, {X} ^ {n} \right) or D≤ft( x, {X} ^ {n} \right) is obtained by replacing F by its empirical counterpart {{F}_{n}} calculated from the sample {X} ^ {n} .
Next interesting depth is the weighted {L} ^ {p} depth. The weighted {L} ^ {p} depth D({x}, F) of a point {x} \in {R} ^ {d} , d ≥ 1 generated by d dimensional random vector {X} with distribution F , is defined as D({x}, F) = \frac{1 }{ 1 + Ew({{≤ft\| x - X \right\| }_{p}}) }, where w is a suitable weight function on [0, ∞) , and {{≤ft\| \cdot \right\| }_{p}} stands for the {L} ^ {p} norm (when p = 2 we have usual Euclidean norm). We assume that w is non-decreasing and continuous on [0, ∞) with w(∞-) = ∞ , and for a, b \in {{{R}} ^ {d}} satisfying w(≤ft\| a + b \right\|) ≤ w(≤ft\| a \right\|) + w(≤ft\| b \right\|) . Examples of the weight functions are: w(x) = a + bx , a, b > 0 or w(x) = {x} ^ {α} . The empirical version of the weighted {L} ^ {p} depth is obtained by replacing distribution F of {X} in Ew({{≤ft\| {x} - {X} \right\| }_{p}}) = \int {w({{≤ft\| x - t \right\| }_{p}})}dF(t) by its empirical counterpart calculated from the sample {{{X}} ^ {n}} ...
The Projection and Tukey's depths are calculated using an approximate algorithm. Calculations of Mahalanobis, Euclidean and L ^ p depths are exact. Returns the depth of multivariate point u with respect to data set X.
