Hei, i have a species abundance data set CommData, with n (samples)=40 and p (species)=107. Sample Species A Species B Species C Species D …. 411_2010 40 20 0 0 412_2010 30 20 0 0 413_2010 0 0 0 0 414_2010 0 10 0 0 415_2010 20 0 0 0 418_2010 0 0 0 0 419_2010 0 0 0 0 421_2010 160 40 0 10 …. I try to find outliers based on the Mahalonis distance with the package {mvoutliers}. I get an error using >aq.plot(CommData): "Error in covMcd(x, alpha = quan) : n <= p -- you can't be serious!" SoI try >pcout(CommData), which is supposed to work for high dimensions, but get the error "More than 50% equal values in one or more variables!"
Can this be fixed? Any idea how i can find outliers in my multidimensional data? Thanks a lot for any help!! -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/detect-multivariate-outliers-with-aq-plot-mvoutliers-high-dimensions-tp4672714.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
