Generalized Ellipsoids

v0.7.3 · Aug 20, 2023 · GPL (>= 2)

Description

Represents generalized geometric ellipsoids with the "(U,D)" representation. It allows degenerate and/or unbounded ellipsoids, together with methods for linear and duality transformations, and for plotting. Thus ellipsoids are naturally extended to include lines, hyperplanes, points, cylinders, etc. This permits exploration of a variety to statistical issues that can be visualized using ellipsoids as discussed by Friendly, Fox & Monette (2013), Elliptical Insights: Understanding Statistical Methods Through Elliptical Geometry <doi:10.1214/12-STS402>.
