After running pairwise_bin_difference(), we can feed that output
dataframe to this function to find the nearest neighbour of each cell. The
pairwise function does the comparisons in a non-redundant way (A-B, A-C,
B-C), leaving out some redundant comparisons (i.e., C-A, C-B). If A's
nearest neighbour is C, it's not guaranteed that C's nearest neighbour is A.
This function takes a cell specific focus and finds the nearest neighbour of
each.
Arguments
- pairwise_diffs
tibble output of
pairwise_bin_difference()
Details
As with pairwise_bin_difference(), using furrr::future_map()
internally, so speed improvements with a future::plan() being set.
