{{alias}}( W[, mx, my] )
|
|
Returns an accumulator function which incrementally computes a moving
|
|
unbiased sample covariance.
|
|
|
|
The `W` parameter defines the number of values over which to compute the
|
|
moving unbiased sample covariance.
|
|
|
|
If provided values, the accumulator function returns an updated moving
|
|
unbiased sample covariance. If not provided values, the accumulator function
|
|
returns the current moving unbiased sample covariance.
|
|
|
|
As `W` (x,y) pairs are needed to fill the window buffer, the first `W-1`
|
|
returned values are calculated from smaller sample sizes. Until the window
|
|
is full, each returned value is calculated from all provided values.
|
|
|
|
Parameters
|
|
----------
|
|
W: integer
|
|
Window size.
|
|
|
|
mx: number (optional)
|
|
Known mean.
|
|
|
|
my: number (optional)
|
|
Known mean.
|
|
|
|
Returns

|
-------
|
|
acc: Function
|
|
Accumulator function.

Examples
|
|
--------
|
|
> var accumulator = {{alias}}( 3 );
|
|
> var v = accumulator()
|
|
null
|
|
> v = accumulator( 2.0, 1.0 )
|
|
0.0
|
|
> v = accumulator( -5.0, 3.14 )
|
|
~-7.49
|
|
> v = accumulator( 3.0, -1.0 )
|
|
-8.35
|
|
> v = accumulator( 5.0, -9.5 )
