gmcxy_np {generalCorr}

Function to compute generalized correlation coefficients r*(x|y) and r*(y|x) from two vectors (not matrices)

Description

This function uses the ‘np’ package and assumes that there are no missing data.

Usage

gmcxy_np(x, y)

Arguments

x

vector of x data

y

vector of y data

Value

corxy

r*(x|y) from regressing x on y, where y is the kernel cause.

coryx

r*(y|x) from regressing y on x, where x is the cause.

Note

This is provided if the user want to avoid calling kern.
