(Cross-)Covariance function
Calculates both the empirical and the theoretical (cross-)covariance function.
RFcov(model, x, y = NULL, z = NULL, T=NULL, grid, params, distances, dim, ..., data, bin=NULL, phi=NULL, theta = NULL, deltaT = NULL, vdim=NULL)
model,params |
object of class |
x |
vector of x coordinates, or object of class |
y,z |
optional vectors of y (z) coordinates, which should not be given if |
T |
optional vector of time coordinates, |
grid |
logical; the function finds itself the correct value in nearly all cases, so that usually |
data |
matrix, data.frame or object of class |
bin |
a vector giving the borders of the bins; If not specified an array describing the empirical (pseudo-)(cross-) covariance function in every direction is returned. |
phi |
an integer defining the number of sectors one half of the X/Y plane shall be divided into. If not specified, either an array is returned (if bin missing) or isotropy is assumed (if bin specified). |
theta |
an integer defining the number of sectors one half of the X/Z plane shall be divided into. Use only for dimension d=3 if phi is already specified. |
deltaT |
vector of length 2, specifying the temporal bins. The internal bin vector becomes |
distances,dim |
another alternative for the argument |
vdim |
the number of variables of a multivariate data set. If not given and |
... |
for advanced use: further options and control arguments for the simulation that are passed to and processed by |
RFcov
computes the empirical
cross-covariance function for given (multivariate) spatial data.
The empirical (cross-)covariance function of two random fields X and Y is given by
γ(r):=1/N(r) ∑_{(t_{i},t_{j})|t_{i,j}=r} (X(t_{i})Y(t_{j})) - m_{X} m_{Y}
where t_{i,j}:=t_{i}-t_{j}, N(r) denotes the number of pairs of data points with distancevector t_{i,j}=r and where m_{X} := \frac{1}{N(r)} ∑_{(t_{i},t_{j})|t_{i,j}=r} X_{t_{i}} and m_{Y} := 1/N(r) ∑_{(t_{i},t_{j})|t_{i,j}=r} Y_{t_{i}} denotes the mean of data points with distancevector t_{i,j}=r.
The spatial coordinates x
, y
, z
should be vectors. For random fields of
spatial dimension d > 3 write all vectors as columns of matrix x. In
this case do neither use y, nor z and write the columns in
gridtriple
notation.
If the data is spatially located on a grid a fast algorithm based on
the fast Fourier transformed (fft) will be used.
As advanced option the calculation method can also be changed for grid
data (see RFoptions
.)
