Distance correlation

Calculates distance correlation for every numeric variable pair in a dataset.

Usage

pair_dcor(d, handle.na = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

d

A dataframe

handle.na

If TRUE uses pairwise complete observations to calculate distance correlation, otherwise NAs not handled.

...

other arguments

Value

A tibble of class pairwise with distance correlation for every numeric variable pair, or NULL if there are not at least two numeric variables

Details

The distance correlation is calculated using dcor2d from energy package
