The Downside Sharpe Ratio (DSR) is a short name for what Ziemba (2005) called the "Symmetric Downside Risk Sharpe Ratio" and is defined as the ratio of the mean excess return to the square root of lower semivariance:
\frac{\overline{(R_{a}-R_{f})}}{\sqrt{2}SemiSD(R_a)}
.
A vector or a list depending on se.method
