Compute Geary's C


Description

A simple function to compute Geary's C, called by geary.test and geary.mc;

C = \frac{(n-1)}{2∑_{i=1}^{n}∑_{j=1}^{n}w_{ij}} \frac{∑_{i=1}^{n}∑_{j=1}^{n}w_{ij}(x_i-x_j)^2}{∑_{i=1}^{n}(x_i - \bar{x})^2}

geary.intern is an internal function used to vary the similarity criterion.

Usage

geary(x, listw, n, n1, S0, zero.policy=NULL)

Arguments

x

a numeric vector the same length as the neighbours list in listw

listw

a listw object created for example by nb2listw

n

number of zones

n1

n - 1

S0

global sum of weights

zero.policy

default NULL, use global option value; if TRUE assign zero to the lagged value of zones without neighbours, if FALSE assign NA

Value

a list with

C

Geary's C

K

sample kurtosis of x
