cailliez | R Documentation |
This function computes the smallest positive constant that makes Euclidean a distance matrix and applies it.
cailliez(distmat, print = FALSE, tol = 1e-07, cor.zero = TRUE)
distmat |
an object of class |
print |
if TRUE, prints the eigenvalues of the matrix |
tol |
a tolerance threshold for zero |
cor.zero |
if TRUE, zero distances are not modified |
an object of class dist
containing a Euclidean distance matrix.
