The Projection Congruent Subset (PCS) is a new method for finding multivariate outliers. PCS returns an outlyingness index which can be used to construct affine equivariant estimates of multivariate location and scatter. In this note, we derive the finite sample breakdown point of these estimators.

This article defines and studies a depth for multivariate functional data. By the multivariate nature and by including a weight function, it acknowledges important characteristics of functional data, namely differences in the amount of local amplitude, shape, and phase variation. We study both...

A multivariate depth for functional data is defined and studied. By the multivariate nature and by including a weight function, it acknowledges important characteristics of functional data, namely differences in the amount of local amplitude, shape and phase variation. Both population and finite...
