In dcortools: Providing Fast and Flexible Functions for Distance Correlation Analysis

Calculates the distance standard deviation \insertCiteedelmann2017distancedcortools.

Description

Calculates the distance standard deviation \insertCiteedelmann2017distancedcortools.

Usage

distsd(
  X,
  affine = FALSE,
  standardize = FALSE,
  bias.corr = FALSE,
  type.X = "sample",
  metr.X = "euclidean",
  use = "all",
  algorithm = "auto"
)

Arguments

X	contains either the sample or its corresponding distance matrix. In the first case, X can be provided either as a vector (if one-dimensional), a matrix or a data.frame (if two-dimensional or higher). In the second case, the input must be a distance matrix corresponding to the sample of interest. If X is a sample, type.X must be specified as "sample". If X is a distance matrix, type.X must be specified as "distance".
affine	logical; specifies if the affinely invariant distance standard deviation \insertCitedueck2014affinelydcortools should be calculated or not.
standardize	logical; specifies if X and Y should be standardized dividing each component by its standard deviations. No effect when affine = TRUE.
bias.corr	logical; specifies if the bias corrected version of the sample distance standard deviation \insertCitehuo2016fastdcortools should be calculated.
type.X	For "distance", X is interpreted as a distance matrix. For "sample", X is interpreted as a sample.
metr.X	specifies the metric which should be used to compute the distance matrix for X (ignored when type.X = "distance"). Options are "euclidean", "discrete", "alpha", "minkowski", "gaussian", "gaussauto", "boundsq" or user-specified metrics (see examples). For "alpha", "minkowski", "gaussian", "gaussauto" and "boundsq", the corresponding parameters are specified via "c(metric, parameter)", e.g. c("gaussian", 3) for a Gaussian metric with bandwidth parameter 3; the default parameter is 2 for "minkowski" and "1" for all other metrics. See \insertCitelyons2013distance,sejdinovic2013equivalence,bottcher2017detecting;textualdcortools for details.
use	specifies how to treat missing values. "complete.obs" excludes observations containing NAs, "all" uses all observations.
algorithm	specifies the algorithm used for calculating the distance standard deviation. "fast" uses an O(n log n) algorithm if the observations are one-dimensional and metr.X and metr.Y are either "euclidean" or "discrete", see also \insertCitehuo2016fast;textualdcortools. "memsave" uses a memory saving version of the standard algorithm with computational complexity O(n^2) but requiring only O(n) memory. "standard" uses the classical algorithm. User-specified metrics always use the classical algorithm. "auto" chooses the best algorithm for the specific setting using a rule of thumb.

Value

numeric; the distance standard deviation of X.
