calcScores: Calculates linking scores for a file of interest and linkage...

In Scalelink: Create Scale Linkage Scores

Description

This function calculates a score from two files, the file of interest (FOI) and linkage data file (LDF).

Usage

calcScores(FOI, LDF, missing.value = NA, min.parallelblocksize = 1,
  output.varnames = NULL, debug = FALSE)

Arguments

FOI	A data.frame object, matrix or vector to be used as the file of interest. This must contain only the variables of interest, and these must be in the same order as the LDF.
LDF	A data.frame object, matrix or vector to be used as the linkage data file. This must contain only the variables of interest, and these must be in the same order as the FOI.
missing.value	Value used to represent missing data; Defaults to NA
min.parallelblocksize	The minimum block size when splitting up the data accross processors. You may wish to change this to optimise the allocation of processors. see (https://rcppcore.github.io/RcppParallel/#tuning).
output.varnames	Labels to apply to function output; Defaults to column names of the FOI data.frame
debug	Boolean indicating whether to output additional debugging information

Value

A list containing: An numeric vector of scores, one for each of the identifiers of interest and a matrix containing A*.
