fsMTS (version 0.1.7)

fsSimilarityMatrix: Constructing the similarity matrix

Description

fsSimilarityMatrix constructs a square matrix of similarity metric values between MTS feature sets. Metrics are calculated using fsSimilarity function with cutting-off feature sets

Usage

fsSimilarityMatrix(feature.sets, threshold, method)

Arguments

feature.sets

a list of matrixes that contains weights for features, estimated by several feature selection algorithms.

threshold

the required sparsity of the resulting feature set

method

a similarity metric. Directly passed to fsSimilarity function

Value

returns a real-valued square matrix with pairwise similarity metric values of feature sets

Examples

# NOT RUN {
# Load traffic data
data(traffic.mini)

# Scaling is sometimes useful for feature selection
# Exclude the first column - it contains timestamps
data <- scale(traffic.mini$data[,-1])

mCCF<-fsMTS(data, max.lag=3, method="CCF")
mDistance<-fsMTS(data, max.lag=3, method="distance", shortest = traffic.mini$shortest, step = 5)
mGLASSO<-fsMTS(data, max.lag=3,method="GLASSO", rho = 0.05)
mLARS<-fsMTS(data, max.lag=3,method="LARS")
mRF<-fsMTS(data, max.lag=3,method="RF")
