CCorDistance: Cross-correlation based distance.

In TSdist: Distance Measures for Time Series Data

Cross-correlation based distance.

Description

Computes the distance measure based on the cross-correlation between a pair of numeric time series.

Usage

CCorDistance(x, y, lag.max=(min(length(x), length(y))-1))

Arguments

x	Numeric vector containing the first time series.
y	Numeric vector containing the second time series.
lag.max	Positive integer that defines the maximum lag considered in the cross-correlation calculations (default=min(length(x), length(y))-1).

Details

The cross-correlation based distance between two numeric time series is calculated as follows:

D= √{ ((1 - CC(x, y, 0) ^ 2) / ∑ (1 - CC(x, y, k) ^ 2)) }

where CC(x,y,k) is the cross-correlation between x and y at lag k.

The summatory in the denominator goes from 1 to lag.max. In view of this, the parameter must be a positive integer no larger than the length of the series.

Value

d	The computed distance between the pair of series.
