kml3d (version 2.3)

dist3d: ~ Function: dist3d ~

Description

Compute the distante between two joint trajectories.

Usage

dist3d(x, y, method = "euclidian", power = 2)

Arguments

x
[matrix(numeric)]: first trajectory. The colomn are time, the line are variables.
y
[matrix(numeric)]: second trajectory. The colomn are time, the line are variables.
method
[character]: method used. Should be one of the method used by the function dist.
power
[numeric]: if method="minkowski", poweris the power used.

Value

  • A numeric

Details

Compute the distante between two joint trajectories, using one of the distance define by dist.

Examples

Run this code
### Generate artificial data
  myCld <- gald3d()

  ### Distance between individual 1 and 3 (there are in the same group)
  dist3d(myCld['traj'][1,,],myCld['traj'][3,,])

  ### Distance between individual 1 and 51 (there are in two different groups)
  dist3d(myCld['traj'][1,,],myCld['traj'][51,,])
