depth: Depth calculation

In depthproc: depthproc

Description

Depth calculation

Usage

depth(u, X, method = "Projection", name = "X", threads = -1, ...)

Arguments

u	Numerical vector or matrix whose depth is to be calculated. Dimension has to be the same as that of the observations.
X	The data as a matrix, data frame or list. If it is a matrix or data frame, then each row is viewed as one multivariate observation. If it is a list, all components must be numerical vectors of equal length (coordinates of observations).
method	Character string which determines the depth function. method can be "Projection" (the default), "Mahalanobis", "Euclidean" or "Tukey". For details see depth.
name	name for this data set - it will be used on plots.
threads	number of threads used in parallel computations. Default value -1 means that all possible cores will be used.
...	parameters specific to method - see depthEuclid

Details

 ## Calculation of Projection depth
 data(starsCYG, package = "robustbase")
 depth(t(colMeans(starsCYG)), starsCYG)

 #Aslo for matrices
 depth(starsCYG, starsCYG)

 ## Projection depth applied to a large bivariate data set
 x = matrix(rnorm(9999), nc = 3)
 depth(x, x)
