Tukey's Bi-square Score (Psi) and "Chi" (Rho) Functions and Derivatives

Description

These are deprecated, replaced by Mchi(*, psi="tukey"), Mpsi(*, psi="tukey")

tukeyPsi1() computes Tukey's bi-square score (psi) function, its first derivative or it's integral/“principal function”. This is scaled such that \psi'(0) = 1, i.e., \psi(x) \approx x around 0.

tukeyChi() computes Tukey's bi-square loss function, chi(x) and its first two derivatives. Note that in the general context of M-estimators, these loss functions are called \rho (rho)-functions.

Usage

tukeyPsi1(x, cc, deriv = 0)
tukeyChi (x, cc, deriv = 0)

Arguments

x	numeric vector.
cc	tuning constant
deriv	integer in \{-1,0,1,2\} specifying the order of the derivative; the default, deriv = 0 computes the psi-, or chi- ("rho"-)function.

Value

a numeric vector of the same length as x.

Note

tukeyPsi1(x, d) and tukeyChi(x, d+1) are just re-scaled versions of each other (for d in -1:1), i.e.,

\chi^{(\nu)}(x, c) = (6/c^2) \psi^{(\nu-1)}(x,c),

for \nu = 0,1,2.

We use the name ‘tukeyPsi1’, because tukeyPsi is reserved for a future “Psi Function” class object, see psiFunc.
