Rank normalization

Description

Compute rank normalization for a numeric array. First replace each value by its rank. Average rank for ties are used to conserve the number of unique values of discrete quantities. Second, normalize ranks via the inverse normal transformation.

Usage

z_scale(x, c = 3/8)

Arguments

x

(numeric) A scalar, vector, matrix, or array of values.

c

(numeric) Fractional offset used in the back-transformation of ranks. Defaults to 3/8.

Value

A numeric array of rank normalized values with the same size and dimension as the input.
