SimMeasure {NetComp} | R Documentation |
Returns a adjacency matrix with the similarity scores between individuals. If
threshold
is provided, values where the absolute value of the
observation is less than the threshold are not considered. The similarity
measure is based on the percent difference between the observations. Details
of the algorithm can be found in the accompanying paper (see references).
SimMeasure(data, threshold=NULL, ...)
data |
Matrix object containing observation data on which to calculate the similarity score. |
threshold |
The threshold value. Responses less than this value (absolute value considered)are not used in calculating the similarity score. |
... |
Other parameters. |
Data can contain NA but may not contain NULL values. This method is designed
for datasets with high numbers of missing or uninformative values that can
be removed by setting the threshold
value. Note that the
threshold
value must be the same for all numbers.
SimMeasure
returns an adjacency matrix containing edges corresponding
to the similarity of the observed values.
