summary.cma: Summarise the extraction of close modern analogues

Description

summary method for class "cma".

Usage

# S3 method for cma
summary(object, ...)

Value

An object of class "summary.cma" with the components of an object of class cma, plus:

distances

a matrix of distances/dissimilarities. Individual columns contain the ordered close modern analogues for individual fossil samples. Rows of this matrix refer to the \(k^{\mathrm{th}}\) closest analogue for each fossil sample. See notes below.

samples

a matrix of sample names from the reference set that are close modern analogues for a fossil sample. Individual columns contain the ordered close modern analogues for individual fossil samples. Rows of this matrix refer to the \(k^{\mathrm{th}}\) closest analogue for each fossil sample. See notes below.

Arguments

object

an object of class "cma", usually the result of a call to cma.

...

arguments passed to or from other methods.
