Bug Description
Beta diversity calculations using these two metrics fail. wminkowski takes an extra parameter, and has been deprecated in favor of the "weighted version of minkowski". mahalanobis produces a numpy.linalg.LinAlgError: Singular Matrix error, when handed any of a number of frequently-used test-data sets (crawford, moving pictures, and a minimal example).

wminkowski
takes an extra parameter, and has been deprecated in favor of the "weighted version ofminkowski
".mahalanobis
produces anumpy.linalg.LinAlgError: Singular Matrix
error, when handed any of a number of frequently-used test-data sets (crawford, moving pictures, and a minimal example).Steps to reproduce the behavior
passing a valid feature table. See the resulting error message.
Computation Environment
Approach
wminkowski
withminkowski
, opening an issue to suggest handling of the weighted version in futuremahalanobis
for now, and open a second issue to track replacement.
