Overview

About

Contains procedures for depth-based supervised learning, which are entirely non-parametric, in particular the DDalpha-procedure (Lange, Mosler and Mozharovskyi, 2014 doi:10.1007/s00362-012-0488-4). The training data sample is transformed by a statistical depth function to a compact low-dimensional space, where the final classification is done. It also offers an extension to functional data and routines for calculating certain notions of statistical depth functions. 50 multivariate and 5 functional classification problems are included. (Pokotylo, Mozharovskyi and Dyckerhoff, 2019 doi:10.18637/jss.v091.i05).
