In several environmental applications data are functions of time, essentially con- tinuous, observed and recorded discretely, and spatially correlated. Most of the methods for analyzing such data are extensions of spatial statistical tools…
As organizations face the challenges of processing exponentially growing data volumes, their reliance on analytics to unlock value from this data has intensified. However, the intricacies of big data, such as its extensive feature sets,…
We consider the problem of clustering functional data while jointly selecting the most relevant features for classification. This problem has never been tackled before in the functional data context, and it requires a proper definition of…
Halfspace depth and $\beta$-skeleton depth are two types of depth functions in nonparametric data analysis. The halfspace depth of a query point $q\in \mathbb{R}^d$ with respect to $S\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ is the minimum portion of the…
Despite of various similar features, Functional Data Analysis and High-Dimensional Data Analysis are two major fields in Statistics that grew up recently almost independently one from each other. The aim of this paper is to propose a survey…
Our research proposes a novel method for reducing the dimensionality of functional data, specifically for the case where the response is a scalar and the predictor is a random function. Our method utilizes distance covariance, and has…
Results of a convincing causal statistical inference related to socio-economic phenomena are treated as especially desired background for conducting various socio-economic programs or government interventions. Unfortunately, quite often…
In a world increasingly awash with data, the need to extract meaningful insights from data has never been more crucial. Functional Data Analysis (FDA) goes beyond traditional data points, treating data as dynamic, continuous functions,…
Roughly speaking, functional analysis is the study of vector spaces of arbitrary dimension over the field of real or complex numbers, and the continuous linear mappings between such spaces. Naturally, the notion of continuity requires a…
We enlarge the number of available functional depths by introducing the kernelized functional spatial depth (KFSD). KFSD is a local-oriented and kernel-based version of the recently proposed functional spatial depth (FSD) that may be useful…
Data quality describes the degree to which data meet specific requirements and are fit for use by humans and/or downstream tasks (e.g., artificial intelligence). Data quality can be assessed across multiple high-level concepts called…
The use of quantiles to obtain insights about multivariate data is addressed. It is argued that incisive insights can be obtained by considering directional quantiles, the quantiles of projections. Directional quantile envelopes are…
Measurement error is an important problem that has not been very well studied in the context of Functional Data Analysis. To the best of our knowledge, there are no existing methods that address the presence of functional measurement errors…
The intrinsic dimensionality refers to the ``true'' dimensionality of the data, as opposed to the dimensionality of the data representation. For example, when attributes are highly correlated, the intrinsic dimensionality can be much lower…
Statistical analysis of high-dimensional functional times series arises in various applications. Under this scenario, in addition to the intrinsic infinite-dimensionality of functional data, the number of functional variables can grow with…
The study of the dynamic behavior of cross-sectional ranks over time for functional data and the ranks of the observed curves at each time point and their temporal evolution can yield valuable insights into the time dynamics of functional…
Functional data analysis (FDA) involves the analysis of data whose ideal units of observation are functions defined on some continuous domain, and the observed data consist of a sample of functions taken from some population, sampled on a…
There is an implicit assumption in software testing that more diverse and varied test data is needed for effective testing and to achieve different types and levels of coverage. Generic approaches based on information theory to measure and…
Statistical depths have been well studied for multivariate and functional data over the past few decades, but remain under-explored for point processes. A first attempt on the notion of point process depth was conducted recently where the…
The halfspace depth is a prominent tool of nonparametric multivariate analysis. The upper level sets of the depth, termed the trimmed regions of a measure, serve as a natural generalization of the quantiles and inter-quantile regions to…
