createCrossRM {KarsTS}

createCrossRM: creates a cross recurrence matrix

Description

This function creates a cross recurrence matrix. It is used through the Cross Recurrence Matrix button in the Analysis Menu

Details

The inputs are two time series representing similar variables (for example, two air temperature time series). They must have the same sampling period, although they can have different lengths. The matrix can be visualized by means of the Plot Cross Recurrence Matrix button in the Plots Menu

Value

A cross recurrence matrix in the environment susEnv. Cross recurrence matrices are not symmetrical, therefore the entire matrix is stored (not only a triangle).
