Aligns a collection of curves using the elastic square-root velocity (srvf)
framework. If the curves are describing multidimensional functional data, then
rotated == FALSE and mode == 'O'
An object of class fdacurve which is a list with the following
components:
mu: mean srvf
beta: centered curves
betamean: mean or median curve
betan: aligned curves
qn: aligned srvfs
type: string indicating whether mean or median is returned
v: shooting vectors
q: array of srvfs
gam: array of warping functions
cent: centers of original curves
len: length of curves
len_q: length of srvfs
mean_scale: mean length
mean_scale_q: mean length srvf
E: energy
qun: cost function
Arguments
beta
Array of sizes \(n \times T \times N\) for \(N\) curves
of dimension \(n\) evaluated on a grid of \(T\) points
mode
Open ("O") or Closed ("C") curves
rotated
Optimize over rotation (default = TRUE)
scale
scale curves to unit length (default = TRUE)
lambda
A numeric value specifying the elasticity. Defaults to 0.0.
maxit
maximum number of iterations
ms
string defining whether the Karcher mean ("mean") or Karcher median
("median") is returned (default = "mean")
parallel
A boolean specifying whether to run calculations in parallel.
Defaults to TRUE.
