Real-world applications may be affected by outlying values. In the model-based clustering literature, several methodologies have been proposed to detect units that deviate from the majority of the data (rowwise outliers) and trim them from…
In cluster tomography, we propose measuring the number of clusters $N$ intersected by a line segment of length $\ell$ across a finite sample. As expected, the leading order of $N(\ell)$ scales as $a\ell$, where $a$ depends on microscopic…
