This function calculates a stratified kernel function skernel between two metabolomic measurements x and y. Suppose the metabolite-set contains p metabolites. Then measurements x and y have p components. Let x_i be the ith component of x. If x_i=0, then the ith metabolite in the metabolite-set is absent. If x_i>0, then the ith metabolite is present and x_i measures the abundance level of the ith metabolite. Measurements x and y are said to from the same stratum if they have the same set of metabolites being absent (present). If x and y are from the same stratum, then skernel(x,y,ρ) is assigned a Gaussian kernel with kernel parameter ρ. Otherwise skernel(x,y,ρ) is defined to be 0. More details can be found in Zhan et al. (2015).
