jsd R Documentation
Estimate Jensen-Shannon divergence
Description
Unified front-end for JSD estimation for continuous and discrete variables.
Usage
jsd(x, y, type = c("auto", "continuous", "discrete"), base = 2, ...)
Arguments
x
First vector.
y
Second vector.
type
One of '"auto"', '"continuous"', or '"discrete"'.
base
Logarithm base. Defaults to 2. Use 'exp(1)' for nats.
...
Additional arguments passed to the type-specific estimator.
Value
An object of class '"jsd_estimate"'.
