GPU Distance Matrix Computations

Description

This function computes and returns the distance matrix computed by using the specified distance measure to compute the distances between the rows of a data matrix.

Usage

distance(x, y, method = "euclidean")

## S4 method for signature 'vclMatrix'
dist(x, method = "euclidean", diag = FALSE, upper = FALSE, p = 2)

## S4 method for signature 'vclMatrix,vclMatrix'
distance(x, y, method = "euclidean")

## S4 method for signature 'gpuMatrix'
dist(x, method = "euclidean", diag = FALSE, upper = FALSE, p = 2)

## S4 method for signature 'gpuMatrix,gpuMatrix'
distance(x, y, method = "euclidean")

Arguments

`x`	A gpuMatrix or vclMatrix object
`y`	A gpuMatrix or vclMatrix object
`method`	the distance measure to be used. This must be one of "euclidean" or "sqEuclidean".
`diag`	logical value indicating whether the diagonal of the distance matrix should be printed
`upper`	logical value indicating whether the upper triangle of the distance matrix
`p`	The power of the Minkowski distance (not currently used)
