Codebook Dissimliarities
Description
Functions to calculate distances/dissimilarities between codebooks.
Usage
hellingerDistance(x,y)
squaredHellingerDistance(x,y)
symmetricAlphaDivergence(x,y)
Arguments
x |
a codebook |
y |
a codebook |
Details
Note: The symmetric alpha-divergence is proportional to the Squared Hellinger distance, and is the default divergence between codebooks.
Value
Returns a numeric dissimilarity between two codebooks.
