Related packages

• StatsBase.jl

  Contains a couple robust statistics, but has no overlapping functionality with this package.

• RobustStats.jl

  Contains many more robust statistics primarily based on the WRS R package. Appears to be unmaintained and not updated to Julia v1. The bivar function is the same as this package's midvar, although bivar does not have definitions for the statistics across axes of an array.

• astropy.stats

  Python implementations of all the statistics presented here. There are some slight differences in the function signatures, including the default cutoff value c (for some statistics).
