contents We introduce an infinite-dimensional version of the Christoffel function, where now (i) its argument lies in a Hilbert space of functions, and (ii) its associated underlying measure is supported on a compact subset of the Hilbert space. We show that it possesses the same crucial property as its finite-dimensional version to identify the support of the measure (and so to detect outliers). Indeed, the growth of its reciprocal with respect to its degree is at least exponential outside the support of the measure and at most polynomial inside. Moreover, for a fixed degree, its computation mimics that of the finite-dimensional case, but now the entries of the moment matrix associated with the measure are moments of moments. To illustrate the potential of this new tool, we consider the following application. Given a data base of registered reference trajectories, we consider the problem of detecting whether a newly acquired trajectory is abnormal (or out of distribution) with respect to the data base. As in the finite-dimensional case, we use the infinite-dimensional Christoffel function as a score function to detect outliers and abnormal trajectories. A few numerical examples are provided to illustrate the theory.
