Mahalanobis distance between two vectors?

2 次查看(过去 30 天)
I want to calculate distance between two vector using Mahalanobis distance. Suppose, A=[2 3 4 5] and B=[4 5 6 7] How can I calculate Mahalanobis distance between the two vector? Is it possible like euclidean distance? Any one help me please. They make me confusion!!

You need a covariance matrix in order to calculate mahalanobis distance as it is a distance relative to a system where a unit distance is effectively the surface of a hypersphere of some orientation or other often represented by some statistical model.

Thank you very much. How can I get covariance matrix from the vector?

Thanks John D'Errico for your reply. In pdist like D = pdist(X) Only X. but how can I arrange A and B into X? Please explain..
