Computes a sample trimmed measure of location based on the spherical Tukey's depth. Supports data on the circle or on the sphere (for Circular median only).
1 | strmeasure(P,sorted=FALSE,depths=NULL,alpha=0,method="Mean")
|
P |
The data as a vector, a matrix, a data frame or a list. |
sorted |
Logical; if TRUE, it indicates that the data given in first argument is sorted. |
depths |
An optionnal vector of the same length of P that contains the Tukey's depth of each data. The calculation of the depth is then skipped and the provided values are used instead. |
alpha |
An optionnal numeric value between 0 and 1 to compute the median on a trimmed region rather than on the whole dataset. The trimming keeps only those points with a depth greater than or equal to |
method |
Character string which determines the measure used. |
This function returns a location estimate (Tukey's median or mean direction) of a sample truncated by Tukey's depth. For data on the circle, data must be expressed in polar coordinates as a angle in radians with values between 0 and 2π. Data on the sphere can be expressed in Euclidean coordinates (n by 3 matrix) or in spherical coordinates (n by 2 matrix) where the first column contains θ and the second column φ. The type of coordinates is determined automatically based on the dimensions of the input.
While the option method="Tukey"
supports only data on the circle, method="Mean"
can also handle data on the sphere.
If the input sample is on the circle, a numeric value between 0 and 2π giving the trimmed measure. If the input sample is on the sphere, the trimmed measure in Euclidean coordinates.
