Syntax
object.MahalanobisD2 (N, covsqrt, mean, X, D2, errorflag)
The MahalanobisD2 property syntax has the following parts:
Part |
Description |
object |
An object of type AmosRanGen. |
N |
Input of type Integer. The number of elements in the vector. |
covsqrt |
Input array of length N*(N+1)/2, of type Double. The square root of the covariance matrix. covsqrt contains the first element of the first row, the first two elements of the second row, and so on. The first element of covsqrt is passed by reference. |
mean |
Input array of length N, of type Double. The mean vector. The first element of mean is passed by reference. |
X |
Input array of length N, of type Double. The observation. The first element of X is passed by reference. |
D2 |
Output of type Double. The squared Mahalanobis distance between X and mean. |
errorflag |
Output of type Integer. errorflag=1 if an error occurred, errorflag=0 otherwise. |
