CDMDistance {TSdist}

Compression-based Dissimilarity measure

Description

Computes the dissimilarity between two numeric series based on their size after compression.

Usage

CDMDistance(x, y, ...)

Arguments

x

Numeric vector containing the first time series.

y

Numeric vector containing the second time series.

...

Additional parameters for the function. See diss.CDM for more information.

Details

This is simply a wrapper for the diss.CDM function of package TSclust. As such, all the functionalities of the diss.CDM function are also available when using this function.

Value

d

The computed distance between the pair of series.
