calcDistances: Calculate Distances Between Time Series

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s)

Description

This is an experimental function to calculate disances between time series.

Usage

1
  calcDistances(X, method="C", nodes=20)

Arguments

X

Matrix with time series values.

method

Method of choice to calculate the distance.

nodes

Number of splines for the spline-based approach.

Details

This is an early attempt to implement a distance measure for time series clustering. It has not yet been tested and hence should be used carefully.

Currently there are two different methods available, the default is method="C". The alternative is spline, what is a spline based approach.

The matrix X contains the individuals in the rows and the columns represent the time points.

As this is developing code, we do not give further information, yet, but include the function in the package for testing purposes.

Value

A matrix with pairwise distances.
