Probability density function of the circular Purkayastha distribution.

Probability density function of the circular Purkayastha distribution

A collection of functions for directional data (including massive data, with millions of observations) analysis. Hypothesis testing, discriminant and regression analysis, MLE of distributions and more are included. The standard textbook for such data is the "Directional Statistics" by Mardia, K. V. and Jupp, P. E. (2000). Other references include a) Phillip J. Paine, Simon P. Preston Michail Tsagris and Andrew T. A. Wood (2018). An elliptically symmetric angular Gaussian distribution.
