In this paper, we show that the halfspace depth random variable for samples from a univariate distribution with a notion of center is distributed as a uniform distribution on the interval [0,1/2]. The simplicial depth random variable has a…
Data depth proves successful in the analysis of multivariate data sets, in particular deriving an overall center and assigning ranks to the observed units. Two key features are: the directions of the ordering, from the center towards the…
This paper introduces several depths for random sets with possibly non-convex realisations, proposes ways to estimate the depths based on the samples and compares them with existing ones. The depths are further applied for the comparison…
Centrality descriptors are widely used to rank nodes according to specific concept(s) of importance. Despite the large number of centrality measures available nowadays, it is still poorly understood how to identify the node which can be…
Many high dimensional vector distances tend to a constant. This is typically considered a negative "contrast-loss" phenomenon that hinders clustering and other machine learning techniques. We reinterpret "contrast-loss" as a blessing.…
Statistical depths provide a fundamental generalization of quantiles and medians to data in higher dimensions. This paper proposes a new type of globally defined statistical depth, based upon control theory and eikonal equations, which…
Determining the representativeness of a point within a data cloud has recently become a desirable task in multivariate analysis. The concept of statistical depth function, which reflects centrality of an arbitrary point, appears to be…
Functional depth is the functional data analysis technique that orders a functional data set. Unlike the case of data on the real line, defining this order is non-trivial, and particularly, with functional data, there are a number of…
A functional data depth provides a center-outward ordering criterion which allows the definition of measures such as median, trimmed means, central regions or ranks in a functional framework. A functional data depth can be global or local.…
We consider the problem of subspace estimation in situations where the number of available snapshots and the observation dimension are comparable in magnitude. In this context, traditional subspace methods tend to fail because the…
The article contains a methodology for social statistics assessing. The significance of minorities (groups that differ in their attributes from the majority) has grown substantially in the modern postindustrial economy and society. In the…
Data sharing enables critical advances in many research areas and business applications, but it may lead to inadvertent disclosure of sensitive summary statistics (e.g., means or quantiles). Existing literature only focuses on protecting a…
Classical multivariate statistics measures the outlyingness of a point by its Mahalanobis distance from the mean, which is based on the mean and the covariance matrix of the data. A multivariate depth function is a function which, given a…
We propose exploiting symmetries (exact or approximate) of the Standard Model (SM) to search for physics Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) using the data-directed paradigm (DDP). Symmetries are very powerful because they provide two samples…
Subspace clustering refers to the problem of clustering unlabeled high-dimensional data points into a union of low-dimensional linear subspaces, whose number, orientations, and dimensions are all unknown. In practice one may have access to…
Modern inference and learning often hinge on identifying low-dimensional structures that approximate large scale data. Subspace clustering achieves this through a union of linear subspaces. However, in contemporary applications data is…
We present single imputation method for missing values which borrows the idea of data depth---a measure of centrality defined for an arbitrary point of a space with respect to a probability distribution or data cloud. This consists in…
This survey addresses sampling discretization and its connections with other areas of mathematics. The survey concentrates on sampling discretization of norms of elements of finite-dimensional subspaces. We present here known results on…
In this paper we propose a unified framework to simultaneously discover the number of clusters and group the data points into them using subspace clustering. Real data distributed in a high-dimensional space can be disentangled into a union…
Investigation of the underlying physics or biology from empirical data requires a quantifiable notion of similarity - when do two observed data sets indicate nearly identical generating processes, and when they do not. The discriminating…
