A data depth measures the centrality of a point with respect to an empirical distribution. Postulates are formulated, which a depth for functional data should satisfy, and a general approach is proposed to construct multivariate data depths in Banach spaces. The new approach, mentioned as Phi-depth, is based on depth infima over a proper set Phi of R^d-valued linear functions. Several desirable properties are established for the Phi-depth and a generalized version of it. The general notions include many new depths as special cases. In particular a location-slope depth and a principal component depth are introduced.

The problem of estimating missing fragments of curves from a functional sample has been widely considered in the literature. However, a majority of the reconstruction methods rely on estimating the covariance matrix or the components of its eigendeco
mposition, a task that may be difficult. In particular, the accuracy of the estimation might be affected by the complexity of the covariance function and the poor availability of complete functional data. We introduce a non-parametric alternative based on a novel concept of depth for partially observed functional data. Our simulations point out that the available methods are unbeatable when the covariance function is stationary, and there is a large proportion of complete data. However, our approach was superior when considering non-stationary covariance functions or when the proportion of complete functions is scarce. Moreover, even in the most severe case of having all the functions incomplete, our method performs well meanwhile the competitors are unable. The methodology is illustrated with two real data sets: the Spanish daily temperatures observed in different weather stations and the age-specific mortality by prefectures in Japan.
Classical multivariate statistics measures the outlyingness of a point by its Mahalanobis distance from the mean, which is based on the mean and the covariance matrix of the data. A multivariate depth function is a function which, given a point and a
distribution in d-space, measures centrality by a number between 0 and 1, while satisfying certain postulates regarding invariance, monotonicity, convexity and continuity. Accordingly, numerous notions of multivariate depth have been proposed in the literature, some of which are also robust against extremely outlying data. The departure from classical Mahalanobis distance does not come without cost. There is a trade-off between invariance, robustness and computational feasibility. In the last few years, efficient exact algorithms as well as approximate ones have been constructed and made available in R-packages. Consequently, in practical applications the choice of a depth statistic is no more restricted to one or two notions due to computational limits; rather often more notions are feasible, among which the researcher has to decide. The article debates theoretical and practical aspects of this choice, including invariance and uniqueness, robustness and computational feasibility. Complexity and speed of exact algorithms are compared. The accuracy of approximate approaches like the random Tukey depth is discussed as well as the application to large and high-dimensional data. Extensions to local and functional depths and connections to regression depth are shortly addressed.
Smart metering infrastructures collect data almost continuously in the form of fine-grained long time series. These massive time series often have common daily patterns that are repeated between similar days or seasons and shared between grouped mete
rs. Within this context, we propose a method to highlight individuals with abnormal daily dependency patterns, which we term evolution outliers. To this end, we approach the problem from the standpoint of Functional Data Analysis (FDA), by treating each daily record as a function or curve. We then focus on the morphological aspects of the observed curves, such as daily magnitude, daily shape, derivatives, and inter-day evolution. The proposed method for evolution outliers relies on the concept of functional depth, which has been a cornerstone in the literature of FDA to build shape and magnitude outlier detection methods. In conjunction with our evolution outlier proposal, these methods provide an outlier detection toolbox for smart meter data that covers a wide palette of functional outliers classes. We illustrate the outlier identification ability of this toolbox using actual smart metering data corresponding to photovoltaic energy generation and circuit voltage records.
We develop a novel exploratory tool for non-Euclidean object data based on data depth, extending the celebrated Tukeys depth for Euclidean data. The proposed metric halfspace depth, applicable to data objects in a general metric space, assigns to dat
a points depth values that characterize the centrality of these points with respect to the distribution and provides an interpretable center-outward ranking. Desirable theoretical properties that generalize standard depth properties postulated for Euclidean data are established for the metric halfspace depth. The depth median, defined as the deepest point, is shown to have high robustness as a location descriptor both in theory and in simulation. We propose an efficient algorithm to approximate the metric halfspace depth and illustrate its ability to adapt to the intrinsic data geometry. The metric halfspace depth was applied to an Alzheimers disease study, revealing group differences in the brain connectivity, modeled as covariance matrices, for subjects in different stages of dementia. Based on phylogenetic trees of 7 pathogenic parasites, our proposed metric halfspace depth was also used to construct a meaningful consensus estimate of the evolutionary history and to identify potential outlier trees.
A novel approach to perform unsupervised sequential learning for functional data is proposed. Our goal is to extract reference shapes (referred to as templates) from noisy, deformed and censored realizations of curves and images. Our model generalize
s the Bayesian dense deformable template model (Allassonni`ere et al., 2007), a hierarchical model in which the template is the function to be estimated and the deformation is a nuisance, assumed to be random with a known prior distribution. The templates are estimated using a Monte Carlo version of the online Expectation-Maximization algorithm, extending the work from Cappe and Moulines (2009). Our sequential inference framework is significantly more computationally efficient than equivalent batch learning algorithms, especially when the missing data is high-dimensional. Some numerical illustrations on curve registration problem and templates extraction from images are provided to support our findings.
