colWeightedMads,dgCMatrix-methodR Documentation

Calculates the weighted median absolute deviation for each row (column) of a matrix-like object

Description

Calculates the weighted median absolute deviation for each row (column) of a matrix-like object.

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'dgCMatrix'
colWeightedMads(
  x,
  w = NULL,
  rows = NULL,
  cols = NULL,
  na.rm = FALSE,
  constant = 1.4826,
  center = NULL,
  useNames = TRUE
)

## S4 method for signature 'dgCMatrix'
rowWeightedMads(
  x,
  w = NULL,
  rows = NULL,
  cols = NULL,
  na.rm = FALSE,
  constant = 1.4826,
  center = NULL,
  useNames = TRUE
)

Arguments

x

An NxK matrix-like object.

w

A numeric vector of length K (N) that specifies by how much each element is weighted.

rows, cols

A vector indicating the subset of rows (and/or columns) to operate over. If NULL, no subsetting is done.

na.rm

If TRUE, missing values (NA or NaN) are omitted from the calculations.

constant

A scale factor. See stats::mad() for details.

center

Not supported at the moment.

useNames

If TRUE (default), names attributes of result are set. Else if FALSE, no naming support is done.

Details

The S4 methods for x of type matrix, array, table, or numeric call matrixStats::rowWeightedMads / matrixStats::colWeightedMads.

Value

Returns a numeric vector of length N (K).

See Also

  • matrixStats::rowWeightedMads() and matrixStats::colWeightedMads() which are used when the input is a matrix or numeric vector.

  • See also rowMads for the corresponding unweighted function.

Examples

  mat <- matrix(0, nrow=10, ncol=5)
  mat[sample(prod(dim(mat)), 25)] <- rpois(n=25, 5)
  sp_mat <- as(mat, "dgCMatrix")
  weights <- rnorm(10, mean=1, sd=0.1)

  # sparse version
  sparseMatrixStats::colWeightedMads(sp_mat, weights)

  # Attention the result differs from matrixStats
  # because it always uses 'interpolate=FALSE'.
  matrixStats::colWeightedMads(mat, weights)
