Abstract
AbstractWe propose a procedure, called CFunHDDC, for clustering functional data with mild outliers which combines two existing clustering methods: the functional high dimensional data clustering (FunHDDC) [1] and the contaminated normal mixture (CNmixt) [3] method for multivariate data. We adapt the FunHDDC approach to data with mild outliers by considering a mixture of multivariate contaminated normal distributions. To fit the functional data in group-specific functional subspaces we extend the parsimonious models considered in FunHDDC, and we estimate the model parameters using an expectation-conditional maximization algorithm (ECM). The performance of the proposed method is illustrated for simulated and real-world functional data, and CFunHDDC outperforms FunHDDC when applied to functional data with outliers.
