c_dependence function

c-dependence calculates c-dependence as the aggregated distance correlation of each pair if nonidentical columns

c_dependence(confs, aggr = NULL, index = 1)

Arguments

• confs: a numeric matrix or data frame
• aggr: the aggregation function for configurations of more than two dimensions. Defaults to max.
• index: exponent on Euclidean distance, in (0,2]

Returns

a numeric value; dependence (aggregated distance correlation)

Examples

x<-1:10
y<-2+3*x+rnorm(10)
confs<-cbind(x,y)
c_dependence(confs,1.5)
