riemdist {shapes} | R Documentation |
Riemannian shape distance
Description
Calculates the Riemannian shape distance rho between two configurations
Usage
riemdist(x, y, 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) |
reflect |
Logical. If reflect = TRUE then reflection invariance is included. |
Value
The Riemannian shape distance rho between the two configurations. Note 0 <= rho <= pi/2 if no reflection invariance. (for the Riemannian size-and-shape distance use ssriemdist)
