scale_mfd

Standardize Multivariate Functional Data.

Description

Scale multivariate functional data contained in an object of class mfd by subtracting the mean function and dividing by the standard deviation function.

Usage

scale_mfd(mfdobj, center = TRUE, scale = TRUE)

Arguments

`mfdobj`	A multivariate functional data object of class `mfd`.
`center`	A logical value, or a `fd` object. When providing a logical value, if TRUE, `mfdobj` is centered, i.e. the functional mean function is calculated and subtracted from all observations in `mfdobj`, if FALSE, `mfdobj` is not centered. If `center` is a `fd` object, then this function is used as functional mean for centering.
`scale`	A logical value, or a `fd` object. When providing a logical value, if TRUE, `mfdobj` is scaled after possible centering, i.e. the functional standard deviation is calculated from all functional observations in `mfdobj` and then the observations are divided by this calculated standard deviation, if FALSE, `mfdobj` is not scaled. If `scale` is a `fd` object, then this function is used as standard deviation function for scaling.

Details

This function has been written to work similarly as the function scale for matrices. When calculated, attributes center and scale are of class fd and have the same structure you get when you use fda::mean.fd and fda::sd.fd.

Value

A standardized object of class mfd, with two attributes, if calculated, center and scale, storing the mean and standard deviation functions used for standardization.

Examples

library(funcharts)
mfdobj <- data_sim_mfd()
mfdobj_scaled <- scale_mfd(mfdobj)
