dms: Dominance Matrix in Symbols

In orddom: Ordinal Dominance Statistics

Description

Returns a character-based dominance matrix based on the signs of all cell values of a given matrix

Usage

dms(dom, paired = FALSE)

Arguments

dom	Input matrix, typically raw difference or dominance matrix
paired	Should only be set to TRUE if the number of rows equal the number of columns and if the difference data in the matrix diagonal are to be given different symbols.

Details

According to the sign of each input matrix' cell value (sign(d_{ij})), a respective symbol is written to the output matrix ("-" for -1, "O" for 0" and "+" for 1).
If paired==TRUE, the diagonal vector of the output matrix receives different symbols (i.e. "<" for -1, "=" for 0, "<" for 1).
