sym.dist.interval: Distance for Symbolic Interval Variables.

In RSDA: R to Symbolic Data Analysis

Distance for Symbolic Interval Variables.

Description

This function computes and returns the distance matrix by using the specified distance measure to compute distance between symbolic interval variables.

Usage

sym.dist.interval(
  sym.data,
  gamma = 0.5,
  method = "Minkowski",
  normalize = TRUE,
  SpanNormalize = FALSE,
  q = 1,
  euclidea = TRUE,
  pond = rep(1, length(variables))
)

Arguments

sym.data	A symbolic object
gamma	gamma value for the methods ichino and minkowski.
method	Method to use (Gowda.Diday, Ichino, Minkowski, Hausdorff)
normalize	A logical value indicating whether normalize the data in the ichino or hausdorff method.
SpanNormalize	A logical value indicating whether
q	q value for the hausdorff method.
euclidea	A logical value indicating whether use the euclidean distance.
pond	A numeric vector
variables	Numeric vector with the number of the variables to use.

Value

An object of class 'dist'
