pub struct FreedmanDiaconis<T> { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

Robust (resilient to outliers) strategy that takes into account data variability and data size.

Let n be the number of observations.

bin_width = 2 × IQR × n−1/3

The bin width is proportional to the interquartile range (IQR) and inversely proportional to cube root of n. It can be too conservative for small datasets, but it is quite good for large datasets.

The IQR is very robust to outliers.

Notes

This strategy requires the data

  • not being empty
  • not being constant
  • having positive IQR

Implementations

The bin width (or bin length) according to the fitted strategy.
