makeDistancesAndWeights

A data matrix to compute distances between row items.

DATA

which distance metric should be used. <code>method</code> matches <code><a rd-options="" href="/link/dist?package=ExPosition&version=2.8.23" data-mini-rdoc="ExPosition::dist">dist</a></code>; Two additional distances are avaialble: "correlation" and "chi2". For "chi2" see <code><a rd-options="" href="/link/chi2Dist?package=ExPosition&version=2.8.23" data-mini-rdoc="ExPosition::chi2Dist">chi2Dist</a></code>. Default is "euclidean".

method

a diagonal matrix (or vector) that contains the masses (for the row items).

masses

Makes distances and weights for MDS analyses (see <code>epMDS</code>).

 multivariate

 misc 

A variety of descriptive multivariate analyses with the singular value decomposition,
such as principal components analysis, correspondence analysis, and multidimensional scaling.
