Showing 2 results for Depth Function
Sakineh Dehghan, Mohamadreza Faridrohani, Volume 15, Issue 2 (3-2022)
Abstract
The concept of data depth has provided a helpful tool for nonparametric multivariate statistical inference by taking into account the geometry of the multivariate data and ordering them. Indeed, depth functions provide a natural centre-outward order of multivariate points relative to a multivariate distribution or a given sample. Since the outlingness of issues is inevitably related to data ranks, the centre-outward ordering could provide an algorithm for outlier detection. In this paper, based on the data depth concept, an affine invariant method is defined to identify outlier observations. The affine invariance property ensures that the identification of outlier points does not depend on the underlying coordinate system and measurement scales. This method is easier to implement than most other multivariate methods. Based on the simulation studies, the performance of the proposed method based on different depth functions has been studied. Finally, the described method is applied to the residential houses' financial values of some cities of Iran in 1397.

Abstract
This paper presents a nonparametric multi-class depth-based classification approach for multivariate data. This approach is easy to implement rather than most existing nonparametric methods that have computational complexity. If the assumption of the elliptical symmetry holds, this method is equivalent to the Bayes optimal rule. Some simulated data sets as well as real example have been used to evaluate the performance of these depth-based classifiers.
