procdist {shapes}

Procrustes distance

Description

Calculates different types of Procrustes shape or size-and-shape distance between two configurations

Usage

procdist(x, y,type="full",reflect=FALSE)

Arguments

x

k x m matrix (or complex k-vector for 2D data) where k = number of landmarks and m = no of dimensions

y

k x m matrix (or complex k-vector for 2D data)

type

string indicating the type of distance; "full" full Procrustes distance, "partial" partial Procrustes distance, "Riemannian" Riemannian shape distance, "sizeandshape" size-and-shape Riemannian/Procrustes distance

reflect

Logical. If reflect = TRUE then reflection invariance is included.

Value

The distance between the two configurations.
