Summary Statistics of Circular Data

Description

Calculate the (weighted median) and standard deviation of orientation data.

Usage

circular_mean(x, w = NULL, axial = TRUE, na.rm = TRUE)

circular_var(x, w = NULL, axial = TRUE, na.rm = TRUE)

circular_sd(x, w = NULL, axial = TRUE, na.rm = TRUE)

circular_median(x, w = NULL, axial = TRUE, na.rm = TRUE)

circular_quantiles(x, w = NULL, axial = TRUE, na.rm = TRUE)

circular_IQR(x, w = NULL, axial = TRUE, na.rm = TRUE)

sample_circular_dispersion(x, w = NULL, axial = TRUE, na.rm = TRUE)

Arguments

x	numeric vector. Values in degrees.
w	(optional) Weights. A vector of positive numbers and of the same length as x.
axial	logical. Whether the data are axial, i.e. pi-periodical (TRUE, the default) or directional, i.e. 2 \pi-periodical (FALSE).
na.rm	logical value indicating whether NA values in x should be stripped before the computation proceeds.

Value

numeric vector

Note

Weighting may be the reciprocal of the data uncertainties.

Weightings have no effect on quasi-median and quasi-quantiles if length(x) %% 2 != 1 and length(x) %% 4 == 0, respectively.
