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…
For a distribution function $F$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$ and a point $q\in \mathbb{R}^d$, the \emph{spherical depth} $\SphD(q;F)$ is defined to be the probability that a point $q$ is contained inside a random closed hyper-ball obtained from a pair…

$\beta$-skeletons are well-known neighborhood graphs for a set of points. We extend this notion to sets of line segments in the Euclidean plane and present algorithms computing such skeletons for the entire range of $\beta$ values. The main…

Performing $n$ steps of $\beta$-reduction to a given term in the $\lambda$-calculus can lead to an increase in the size of the resulting term that is exponential in $n$. The same is true for the possible depth increase of terms along a…
Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in $d$-dimensions. The simplicial depth, $\sigma_P(q)$ of a point $q$ is the number of $d$-simplices with vertices in $P$ that contain $q$ in their convex hulls. The simplicial depth is a notion of data depth…

We design an efficient data structure for computing a suitably defined approximate depth of any query point in the arrangement $\mathcal{A}(S)$ of a collection $S$ of $n$ halfplanes or triangles in the plane or of halfspaces or simplices in…
Statistical depth is the act of gauging how representative a point is compared to a reference probability measure. The depth allows introducing rankings and orderings to data living in multivariate, or function spaces. Though widely applied…

Measures of data depth have been studied extensively for point data. Motivated by recent work on analysis, clustering, and identifying representative elements in sets of trajectories, we introduce {\em curve stabbing depth} to quantify how…
We give algorithms for computing the regression depth of a k-flat for a set of n points in R^d. The running time is O(n^(d-2) + n log n) when 0 < k < d-1, faster than the best time bound for hyperplane regression or for data depth.
We consider the problem of approximating smoothing spline estimators in a nonparametric regression model. When applied to a sample of size $n$, the smoothing spline estimator can be expressed as a linear combination of $n$ basis functions,…
