xcorr2: 2-D cross-correlation

Description

Compute the 2D cross-correlation of matrices a and b.

Usage

xcorr2(a, b = a, scale = c("none", "biased", "unbiased", "coeff"))

Value

2-D cross-correlation or autocorrelation matrix, returned as a matrix

Arguments

a

Input matrix, coerced to numeric. Must not be missing.

b

Input matrix, coerced to numeric. Default: a.

scale

Character string. Specifies the type of scaling applied to the correlation matrix. matched to one of:

"none"

no scaling

"biased"

Scales the raw cross-correlation by the maximum number of elements of a and b involved in the generation of any element of the output matrix.

"unbiased"

Scales the raw correlation by dividing each element in the cross-correlation matrix by the number of products a and b used to generate that element.

"coeff"

Scales the normalized cross-correlation on the range of [0 1] so that a value of 1 corresponds to a correlation coefficient of 1.

Details

If b is not specified, computes autocorrelation of a, i.e., same as xcorr2 (a, a).
