R code results do not match C++ code results (version: multi) about breakoutdetection HOT 4 OPEN

How are you calling the C++ code? The last function argument should be of type int, so I'm not sure how you aren't getting a run time error.

Hi
I changed the signature because it couldn't find IntegerVector to use an array, but that's not the point. In my call above I put Linear to show that it uses the linear function. Putting a 1 is not that clear (at least to me) Anyway, my point is not that the code is not working. The point is that the C++ code gives different results than the R code if you give it the parameters I show in my original post. I was wondering why that is the case. Maybe the code is broken so I'm just giving you a heads up.

Thanks for the clarification.

I modified my version of the package and was able to obtain the results that you mentioned.

However, there is nothing wrong with the package. If you look at the R code you will notice that before performing any analysis all of the values are scaled to be in the interval [0,1]. This is because R is able to handle arbitrarily larger numbers while C++ can't (well at least not with the standard libraries). If you perform the scaling and then apply the C++ method you obtain the same results.

Hope that helps.

Thanks for the explanation.
