Matrix of Jeffreys measures (symmetrised Kullback-Leibler divergences) between Gaussian densities

Description

Computes the matrix of Jeffreys measures between several multivariate (p > 1) or univariate (p = 1) Gaussian densities, given their parameters (mean vectors and covariance matrices if the densities are multivariate, or means and variances if univariate), using jeffreyspar.

Usage

matjeffreyspar(meanL, varL)

Arguments

meanL	list of the means (p = 1) or vector means (p > 1) of the Gaussian densities.
varL	list of the variances (p = 1) or covariance matrices (p > 1) of the probability densities.

Value

Positive symmetric matrix whose order is equal to the number of densities, consisting of pairwise Jeffreys measures between the Gaussian densities.

Examples

    data(roses)
    
    # Multivariate:
    X <- roses[,c("Sha","Den","Sym","rose")]
    summary(X)
    mean.X <- as.list(by(X[, 1:3], X$rose, colMeans))
    var.X <- as.list(by(X[, 1:3], X$rose, var))
    matjeffreyspar(mean.X, var.X)

    # Univariate :
    X1 <- roses[,c("Sha","rose")]
    summary(X1)
    mean.X1 <- by(X1$Sha, X1$rose, mean)
    var.X1 <- by(X1$Sha, X1$rose, var)
    matjeffreyspar(mean.X1, var.X1)
