Extending HCL OneDB™Beyond standard relational database objects, HCL OneDB™ can be extended to handle specialized data types, access methods, routines, and other objects. HCL OneDB™ includes many built-in extensions that are fully integrated in the database server. HCL OneDB™ also provides DataBlade® modules, which are packages of extended database objects for a particular purpose and that are installed separately from the database server. Alternatively, you can create your own user-defined objects for HCL OneDB™.

TSCompute_LP_Dist functionThe TSCompute_LP_Dist function uses the L_p-norm function to calculate how close the two time series sequences match.

TSCompute_LP_Dist function

The TSCompute_LP_Dist function uses the L_p-norm function to calculate how close the two time series sequences match.

Syntax

TSCompute_LP_Dist (
                 sequence1     list,
                 sequence2     list,                      
                 p_value       DOUBLE PRECISION) 
RETURNS DOUBLE PRECISION

sequence1: A list of values that is returned by the ValueAsCollection or TSGetValueList function.
sequence2: A list of values that is returned by the ValueAsCollection or TSGetValueList function.
p_value: The p value as defined in the L_p-norm function. Must be greater than 0.

Usage

Run the TSCompute_LP_Dist function to calculate the distance between two time series sequences with the L_p-norm formula. The length of the sequences must be the same. See Lp-norm.

Returns

A number that represents the difference between two sequences.
