k_divergence: K-Divergence (lowlevel function)

Description

The lowlevel function for computing the k_divergence distance.

Usage

k_divergence(P, Q, testNA, unit)

Arguments

P

a numeric vector storing the first distribution.

Q

a numeric vector storing the second distribution.

testNA

a logical value indicating whether or not distributions shall be checked for NA values.

unit

type of log function. Option are

• unit = "log"

• unit = "log2"

• unit = "log10"

Examples

# NOT RUN {
k_divergence(P = 1:10/sum(1:10), Q = 20:29/sum(20:29), testNA = FALSE, unit = "log2")
# }
