RoCoCo - An R Package Implementing a Robust Rank Correlation Coefficient and a Corresponding Test
Classical rank correlation measures are designed for ordinal data, but they are not ideally suited for measuring rank correlation for numerical data that are perturbed by noise. We introduced a family of robust rank correlation measures on the basis of Goodman's and Kruskal's gamma, where the classical ordering of real numbers is replaced by some fuzzy ordering with smooth transitions - thereby ensuring that the correlation measure is continuous with respect to the data. The present R package implements this rank correlation measure along with a corresponding statistical test. Moreover, the package also implements the Gaussian rank correlation estimator and a corresponding statistical test.
Although the package is maintained by Ulrich Bodenhofer, large parts of the package itself have been implemented by Martin Krone.
Installation
The package can be installed from
CRAN. Therefore, the the simplest way to install the package is to enter
install.packages("rococo")
into your R session. If, for what reason ever, you prefer to install the package manually, follow the instructions in the user manual.
User support
If you encounter any issues or if you have any question that might be of interest also for other users, before writing a private message to the package developers/maintainers, please create an issue in this repository and also consider posting to the R-help Mailing List or on StackOverflow. For other matters regarding the package, please contact the package author.
