## Community estimation in G-models via CORD

### Description

Partition data points (variables) into clusters/communities. Reference: Bunea, F., Giraud, C., & Luo, X. (2015). Community estimation in G-models via CORD. arXiv preprint arXiv:1508.01939. http://arxiv.org/abs/1508.01939.

### Usage

cord(X, tau = 2 * sqrt(log(ncol(X))/nrow(X)), kendall = T,
input = c("data", "cor", "dist"))


### Arguments

 X Input data matrix. It should be an n (samples) by p (variables) matrix when input is set to the value "data" by default. It can also be a p by p symmetric matrix when X is a correlation matrix or a distance matrix if input is set accordingly. tau Threshold to use at each iteration. A theoretical choice is about 2n^{-1/2}\log^{1/2} p. kendall Whether to compute Kendall's tau correlation matrix from X, when input is set to "data". If FALSE, Pearson's correlation will be computed, usually faster for large p. input Type of input X. It should be set to "data" when X is an n (samples) by p (variables) matrix. If X is a correlation matrix or a distance matrix, it should be set to "cor" or "dist" respectively.

### Value

list with one element: a vector of integers showing which cluster/community each point is assigned to.

### Examples

set.seed(100)
X <- 2*matrix(rnorm(200*2), 200, 10)+matrix(rnorm(200*10), 200, 10)
cord(X)
