Correct translation of Matlab to Python (CID Distance)

[poster]

This is the Matlab code for Complexity Invariance Distance (Source)

Q and C are 1d-arrays with similar length.

function d = CID(Q, C)

   CE_Q = sqrt(sum(diff(Q).^2));

   CE_C = sqrt(sum(diff(C).^2));

   d = sqrt(sum((Q - C).^2)) * (max(CE_Q,CE_C)/min(CE_Q,CE_C));

This is my pythonic translation:

def cid_dist(Q,C):

    import numpy as np

    CE_Q = np.sqrt(np.sum(np.diff(Q)**2))

    CE_C= np.sqrt(np.sum(np.diff(C)**2))

    d = np.sqrt(np.sum((Q - C)**2)) * (np.maximum(CE_Q,CE_C)/np.minimum(CE_Q,CE_C))

    return d

Is it correct?
