mean3 {ICS} | R Documentation |
~~ Estimates the location based on third moments. ~~
mean3(X, na.action = na.fail)
X |
numeric data matrix or dataframe with at least two columns. |
na.action |
a function which indicates what should happen when the data contain 'NA's. Default is to fail. |
This Location Estimate is defined for n x p matrix X as
S= 1/(p) ave[r_i^2 x_i],
where r_i is Mahalanobis distance between x_i and the mean with respect to the regular covariance matrix.
A vector.
