How to properly declare distance from TSclust with option

[wirginiad]

I would be grateful to make sure if I properly deal with option for diss.CORT form TSclust. I want the deltahmethod to be set to DTW.

There's no error nor warning, but I wonder whether there is some other way to do it? The code is as follows:

mydist <- function(x, y){
       diss.CORT(x, y, k = 2, deltamethod="DTW")
  }

proxy::pr_DB$set_entry(FUN = mydist, names = c("CORT++dtw"),
                       loop = TRUE, type = "metric", distance = TRUE,
                       description = "CORT with DTW")

tsclust(data, type="hierarchical", k = 2,
        distance = "CORT++dtw",
        control=hierarchical_control(method="ward.D"))

I am deeply grateful for dtwclust package and your kind assitance.

That looks correct to me. I don't know the specifics about that distance, but usage seems OK. I can't remember right now if more warnings are thrown if you set trace=TRUE, but if that's the case, I think it only warns about series with different lengths, which you could ignore if the distance you're using supports that.

Thank you very much.
