Dot: Calculate the Dot Product Between Two Vectors

In SimilarityMeasures: Trajectory Similarity Measures

Description

A function to calculate the dot product between two vectors. This is used in the Frechet algorithm and does not need to be called directly.

Usage

Dot(vect1, vect2, dimensions=length(vect1))

Arguments

vect1	An n dimensional vector representing the first vector.
vect2	An n dimensional vector representing the second vector.
dimensions	An integer representing the number of dimensions being used for the dot product calculation. This defaults to the length of the first vector.

Details

This function is called by the Frechet function.

Value

A floating point value is returned, representing the dot product between the two vectors.
