Bhattacharyya Coefficient

Description

Calculate the Bhattacharyya Coefficient as a similarity between two modes objects.

Usage

bhattacharyya(...)

## S3 method for class 'enma'
bhattacharyya(enma, covs=NULL, ncore=NULL, ...)

## S3 method for class 'array'
bhattacharyya(covs, ncore=NULL, ...)

## S3 method for class 'matrix'
bhattacharyya(a, b, q=90, n=NULL, ...)

## S3 method for class 'nma'
bhattacharyya(...)

## S3 method for class 'pca'
bhattacharyya(...)

Arguments

`enma`	an object of class `"enma"` obtained from function `nma.pdbs`.
`covs`	an array of covariance matrices of equal dimensions.
`ncore`	number of CPU cores used to do the calculation. `ncore>1` requires package ‘parallel’ installed.
`a`	covariance matrix to be compared with `b`.
`b`	covariance matrix to be compared with `a`.
`q`	a numeric value (in percent) determining the number of modes to be compared.
`n`	the number of modes to be compared.
`...`	arguments passed to associated functions.

Details

Bhattacharyya coefficient provides a means to compare two covariance matrices derived from NMA or an ensemble of conformers (e.g. simulation or X-ray conformers).

Value

Returns the similarity coefficient(s).
