This is the method for the generic function density
for the class "linnet"
(linear networks).
The network x
is first converted to a line segment pattern
(object of class "psp"
). Then the method
density.psp
is applied to the
segment pattern.
A kernel estimate of the intensity of the line segment pattern
is computed. The result is
the convolution of the isotropic Gaussian kernel, of
standard deviation sigma
, with the line segments.
The intensity of a line segment pattern
is the (spatially-varying) amount of segment length per unit area,
expressed in the same units as the coordinates of x
.
If the units of x
are in metres, then an intensity value of 3
means that there are 3 metres of segment length per square metre of
spatial domain.
See density.psp
for more details.
