Nested Circular Mean

57 Views Asked by At

Assume this code (written in MatLab). I'm about to calculate average of 50 random angles using Circular Statistics (Circular Mean), with nested averaging method:

rm = (rand(5,10) - 0.5) * 12; % generate random numbers in -6 .. 6
av1 = circ_mean(circ_mean(rm)')
av2 = circ_mean(circ_mean(rm')')

av1 and av2 expected to be the same, but! they are not even close to each other. Is that about implementation?
