This question is a continuation of how to extract intergroup and intergroup distances from a distance matrix? in R . In this question, they first calculated the distance matrix for all points, and then simply retrieved the interclass distance matrix. I have a situation where I would like to bypass the initial calculations and skip the extraction right, i.e. I want to directly calculate the interclass distance matrix. Drawing from a related example, with tricks, let's say I have some data in a data frame df:
values<-c(0.002,0.3,0.4,0.005,0.6,0.2,0.001,0.002,0.3,0.01)
class<-c("A","A","A","B","B","B","B","A","B","A")
df<-data.frame(values, class)
What I need is a distance matrix:
1 2 3 8 10
4 .003 .295 .395 .003 .005
5 .598 .300 .200 .598 .590
6 .198 .100 .200 .198 .190
7 .001 .299 .399 .001 .009
9 .298 .000 .100 .298 .290
Is there an already elegant and fast way to do this in R?
1D- , : , , df :
values1<-c(0.002,0.3,0.4,0.005,0.6,0.2,0.001,0.002,0.3,0.01)
values2<-c(0.001,0.1,0.1,0.001,0.1,0.1,0.001,0.001,0.1,0.01)
class<-c("A","A","A","B","B","B","B","A","B","A")
df<-data.frame(values1, values2, class)
B A.
