Tukey depth regions are important notions in nonparametric multivariate data analysis. A $\tau$-th Tukey depth region $\mathcal{D}_{\tau}$ is the set of all points that have at least depth $\tau$. While the Tukey depth regions are easily…

Given data in $\mathbb{R}^{p}$, a Tukey $\kappa$-trimmed region is the set of all points that have at least Tukey depth $\kappa$ w.r.t. the data. As they are visual, affine equivariant and robust, Tukey regions are useful tools in…
