HIM Distance

Description

Hamming-Ipsen-Mikhailov (HIM) combines the local Hamming edit distance and the global Ipsen-Mikhailov distance to merge information at each scale. For Ipsen-Mikhailove distance, it is provided as nd.csd in our package for consistency. Given a parameter \xi (xi), it is defined as

HIM_{\xi}(A,B)=\sqrt{H^2(A,B)+\xi\cdot IM^2(A,B)}/\sqrt{1+\xi}

where H and IM stand for Hamming and I-M distance, respectively.

Usage

nd.him(A, out.dist = TRUE, xi = 1, ntest = 10)

Arguments

A	a list of length N containing (M\times M) adjacency matrices.
out.dist	a logical; TRUE for computed distance matrix as a dist object.
xi	a parameter to control balance between two distances.
ntest	the number of searching over nd.csd parameter.

Value

a named list containing

D

an (N\times N) matrix or dist object containing pairwise distance measures.
