| spearman.dist {bioDist} | R Documentation |
Calculate pairwise Spearman correlational distances, i.e. 1-SPEAR or
1-|SPEAR|, for all rows of a matrix and return a dist object.
spearman.dist(x, ...)
x |
n by p matrix or ExpressionSet; if x is an ExpressionSet, then the function uses its 'exprs' slot. |
... |
arguments passed to spearman.dist:
TRUE, then 1-|SPEAR| else 1-SPEAR; default is TRUE.TRUE, then the diagonal of the distance matrix will be displayed; default is FALSE.TRUE, then the upper triangle of the distance matrix will be displayed; default is FALSE. |
We call cor with the appropriate arguments to compute the row-wise correlations.
One minus the Spearman correlation, between rows of x, are returned, as
an instance of the dist class.
