In ICSOutlier: Outlier Detection Using Invariant Coordinate Selection

Selection of Nonnormal Invariant Components Using Marginal Normality Tests

Description

Identifies invariant coordinates that are non normal using univariate normality tests.

Usage

comp_norm_test(
  object,
  test = "agostino.test",
  type = "smallprop",
  level = 0.05,
  adjust = TRUE
)

Arguments

object	object of class "ICS" where both S1 and S2 are specified as functions. The sample size and the dimension of interest are also obtained from the object.
test	name of the normality test to be used. Possibilites are "jarque.test", "anscombe.test", "bonett.test", "agostino.test", "shapiro.test". Default is "agostino.test".
type	currently the only option is "smallprop". See details.
level	the initial level used to make a decision based on the test p-values. See details.
adjust	logical. If TRUE, the quantiles levels are adjusted. Default is TRUE. See details.

Details

Currently the only available type is "smallprop" which detects which of the components follow a univariately normal distribution. It starts from the first component and stops when a component is detected as gaussian. Five tests for univariate normality are available. See normal_crit() function for more general cases.

If adjust = FALSE all tests are performed at the same level. This leads however often to too many components. Therefore some multiple testing adjustments might be useful. The current default adjusts the level for the jth component as level/j.

Note that the function is seldomly called directly by the user but internally by ICS_outlier().

Value

A list containing:

• index: integer vector indicating the indices of the selected components.

• test: string with the name of the normality test used.

• criterion: vector of the p-values from the marginal normality tests for each component.

• levels: vector of the levels used for the decision for each component.

• adjust: logical. TRUE if adjusted.

• type: type used

Examples

Z <- rmvnorm(1000, rep(0, 6))
# Add 20 outliers on the first component
Z[1:20, 1] <- Z[1:20, 1] + 10
pairs(Z)
icsZ <- ICS(Z)
# The shift located outliers can be displayed in one dimension
comp_norm_test(icsZ)
# Only one invariant component is non normal and selected.
comp_norm_test(icsZ, test = "bonett.test")

# Example with no outlier
Z0 <- rmvnorm(1000, rep(0, 6))
pairs(Z0)
icsZ0 <-ICS(Z0)
# Should select no component
comp_norm_test(icsZ0, level = 0.01)$index
