Hi All,
Does someone have an idea of how to cleverly convert a categorical
timeseries into a transition matrix?
Ie, I have something like:
x<- c(1,1,2,1,1,2,2,2,1,2),
And I want a matrix with counts and/or probabilities:
> tr <- matrix(c(2,3,2,2),2,2)
> tr
[,1] [,2]
[1,] 2 2
[2,] 3 2
Meaning that there are two transitions from 1 to 1, two from 1 to 2, three
from 2 to 1 and two from 2 to 2.
Using for loops etc this is of course no problem, but I am curious whether
there is a smarter solution.
Any hints appreciated, Ingmar
