Int.Corr.NN {BinNonNor} | R Documentation |
Computes an intermediate correlation matrix for continuous non-normal variables given the specified correlation matrix
Description
This function computes the intermediate correlation matrix for continuous non-normal-continuous non-normal combinations as formulated in Demirtas et al. (2012).
Usage
Int.Corr.NN(n.NN, corr.vec = NULL, corr.mat = NULL, coef.mat)
Arguments
n.NN |
Number of continuous non-normal variables. |
corr.vec |
Vector of elements below the diagonal of correlation matrix ordered columnwise. |
corr.mat |
Specified correlation matrix. |
coef.mat |
Matrix of coefficients produced from |
Value
A correlation matrix of size n.NN*n.NN.
