Estimate componentwise central moments.

Parameters:

Componentwise central moment of order k estimated from the sample.

Notes

The central moment of order k is estimated as follows:

\vect{\widehat{m}}^{(k)}_0 = \Tr{\left(\frac{1}{m}
                                       \sum_{j=1}^m
                                       \left(x_i^{(j)} - \widehat{\mu}_i\right)^k,
                                       \quad i = 1, \ldots, n\right)}

where \vect{\widehat{\mu}} is the estimator of the mean.

These estimators are the natural (possibly biased) estimators. For unbiased estimators use the other dedicated methods such as computeVariance() for the variance.

Examples

>>> import openturns as ot
>>> ot.RandomGenerator.SetSeed(0)
>>> sample = ot.Normal(2).getSample(30)
>>> print(sample.computeCentralMoment(2))
[0.915126,0.873119]

                               \sum_{k=1}^m
                               \left(x_i^{(k)} - \widehat{\mu}_i\right)
                               \left(x_j^{(k)} - \widehat{\mu}_j\right),
                               \quad i, j = 1, \ldots, n\right]

where \vect{\widehat{\mu}} denotes the estimate of the mean.

This is an unbiased estimator.

Examples

>>> import openturns as ot
>>> ot.RandomGenerator.SetSeed(0)
>>> sample = ot.Normal(2).getSample(30)
>>> print(sample.computeCovariance())
[[ 0.946682  0.0182104 ]

Notes

The empirical cumulative distribution function (CDF) is estimated as follows:

Returns:
tauCorrelationMatrix

Notes

This uses an external implementation provided under the Boost Software License by David Simcha based on the paper by [knight1966]. It actually switches between two implementations depending on the sample size:

  • The most basic implementation performing in O(m^2) is used when the sample size is less than SampleImplementation-SmallKendallTau from the ResourceMap.

  • The other more complex implementation performing in O(m\log(m)) is used for larger samples.

Examples

>>> import openturns as ot

>>> print(sample.computeKendallTau())

                                          \left(x_i^{(j)} - \widehat{\mu}_i\right)^4}
                                         {\left(\sum_{j=1}^m
                                                \left(x_i^{(j)} - \widehat{\mu}_i\right)^2
                                          \right)^2}
                                    - 3 \frac{3 (m-5)}{(m-2) (m-3)},
                                    \quad i = 1, \ldots, n\right)}

See also

getDescription
setName(name)

Accessor to the object’s name.

Parameters:

sort(*args)

Sort the sample.

The ordering is based on the comparison operator of the Point. Hence, the sort method orders the points in the sample according to lexicographic order.

Parameters:
marginal_indexint, 0 \leq i < n, optional

The index of the component to sort. Default sorts the whole sample, i.e. the returned sorted sample has the same dimension as the input sample. If marginal_index is provided, then the returned sorted sample has dimension 1: the corresponding marginal sample is sorted and returned.

Returns:
sorted_sampleSample

The requested sorted sample.

Examples

>>> import openturns as ot
>>> ot.RandomGenerator.SetSeed(0)
>>> sample = ot.Normal(2).getSample(3)
>>> print(sample)
    [ X0        X1        ]
0 : [  0.608202 -1.26617  ]
1 : [ -0.438266  1.20548  ]
2 : [ -2.18139   0.350042 ]
>>> print(sample.sort())
    [ X0        X1        ]
0 : [ -2.18139   0.350042 ]
1 : [ -0.438266  1.20548  ]
2 : [  0.608202 -1.26617  ]
>>> print(sample.sort(1))
0 : [ -1.26617  ]
1 : [  0.350042 ]
2 : [  1.20548  ]

In the following sample, the first component of all points is equal to -1, which creates a tie where the other components must be used to make a difference in the comparison. The algorithm sorts the points taking into account all the components in the points. This shows that the algorithm uses lexicographic ordering, since using only the first component would leave the sample unchanged.

>>> import openturns as ot
>>> sample = ot.Sample(
...     [[-1.0, 1.0, 1.0], [-1.0, 1.0, 0.0], [-1.0, 0.0, 1.0], [-1.0, 0.0, -1.0]]
... )
>>> print(sample)
0 : [ -1  1  1 ]
1 : [ -1  1  0 ]
2 : [ -1  0  1 ]
3 : [ -1  0 -1 ]
>>> print(sample.sort())
0 : [ -1  0 -1 ]
1 : [ -1  0  1 ]
2 : [ -1  1  0 ]
3 : [ -1  1  1 ]
