KurtosisModuleCoefficient: Calculation of the kurtosis coefficient of the modules

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) References See Also Examples

Description

This function calculates the kurtosis coefficient, which characterizes the shape of the distribution from a set of input modules.

Usage

1

Arguments

modules

Vector containing the values of the modules

Details

One way to obtain a set of modules from X and Y coordinates of the vectors is to use the LoadData function.

The kurtosis coefficient is a measure of whether the data are flat or peaked relative to the normal distribution.

Value

The value of the kurtosis coefficient of all input modules
