Calculate the Hellinger distance for each species.
Description
This function takes a dataframe and a factor in input, and returns a matrix with the Hellinger distances about it.
Usage
chellinger(
dataset,
formula,
plot = TRUE,
plot_title = "Hellinger Distance Between Groups"
)
Arguments
dataset |
A dataframe. |
formula |
A factor which you want to calculate the Hellinger distances matrix. |
plot |
Logical, if TRUE, a plot of Hellinger distances matrix is displayed. |
plot_title |
The title to be used for the plot if plot is TRUE. |
Value
A matrix containing Hellinger distances between each pair of groups and the plot.
Examples
