Method Detail

dependence

<A,B> double dependence(NumberArrayAdapter<?,A> adapter1,
                      A data1,
                      NumberArrayAdapter<?,B> adapter2,
                      B data2)

Measure the dependence of two variables. This is the more flexible API, which allows using different internal data representations.

Type Parameters:

A - First array type

B - Second array type

Parameters:

adapter1 - First data adapter

data1 - First data set

adapter2 - Second data adapter

data2 - Second data set

Returns:

Dependence measure

dependence

<A> double dependence(NumberArrayAdapter<?,A> adapter,
                    A data1,
                    A data2)

Measure the dependence of two variables. This is the more flexible API, which allows using different internal data representations.

Type Parameters:

A - Array type

Parameters:

adapter - Array type adapter

data1 - First data set

data2 - Second data set

Returns:

Dependence measure

dependence

<A> double[] dependence(NumberArrayAdapter<?,A> adapter,
                      List<? extends A> data)

Measure the dependence of two variables. This is the more flexible API, which allows using different internal data representations. The resulting data is a serialized lower triangular matrix:

  X  S  S  S  S  S
  0  X  S  S  S  S
  1  2  X  S  S  S
  3  4  5  X  S  S
  6  7  8  9  X  S
 10 11 12 13 14  X
 

Type Parameters:

A - Array type

Parameters:

adapter - Data adapter

data - Data sets. Must have fast random access!

Returns:

Lower triangular serialized matrix

dependence

double dependence(double[] data1,
                double[] data2)

Measure the dependence of two variables.

Parameters:

data1 - First data set

data2 - Second data set

Returns:

Dependence measure
