Calculating distance correlation of two vectors or columns of a matrix

Description

Calculating distance correlation of two vectors or columns of a matrix for Generalized Network-based Dimensionality Reduction and Analysis (GNDA).

The calculation is very slow for large matrices!

Usage

dCor(x,y=NULL)

Arguments

x	a numeric vector, matrix or data frame.
y	NULL (default) or a vector, matrix or data frame with compatible dimensions to x. The default is equivalent to y = x (but more efficient).

Details

If x is a numeric vector, y must be specified. If x is a numeric matrix or numeric data frame, y will be neglected.

Value

Either a distance correlation coefficient of vectors x and y, or a distance correlation matrix of x if x is a matrix or a dataframe.
