Intrinsic means on the circle: uniqueness, locus and asymptotics
From MaRDI portal
Publication:2255171
Abstract: This paper gives a comprehensive treatment of local uniqueness, asymptotics and numerics for intrinsic means on the circle. It turns out that local uniqueness as well as rates of convergence are governed by the distribution near the antipode. In a nutshell, if the distribution there is locally less than uniform, we have local uniqueness and asymptotic normality with a rate of 1 / surdn. With increased proximity to the uniform distribution the rate can be arbitrarly slow, and in the limit, local uniqueness is lost. Further, we give general distributional conditions, e.g. unimodality, that ensure global uniqueness. Along the way, we discover that sample means can occur only at the vertices of a regular polygon which allows to compute intrinsic sample means in linear time from sorted data. This algorithm is finally applied in a simulation study demonstrating the dependence of the convergence rates on the behavior of the density at the antipode.
