set.Gr {BBEST}

Add information on the low-r behaviour of G(r)

Description

Function to incorporate information on the low-r behaviour of G(r) into the Bayesian model.

Usage

set.Gr(data, r1=seq(0, 1, 0.005), r2=NA, rho.0,
       type1="gaussianNoise", type2=NA, sigma.f=NA, l=NA)

Arguments

data

an object of type data. See set.data for details.

r1, r2

numeric vectors, specify grids on which the G(r) behaviour is controlled.

rho.0

numeric, atomic number density of the material: a number of atoms per unit cell divided by a volume of the unit cell.

type1, type2

characters, specify the way to control the behavior of G(r). See details.

sigma.f, l

numerics or numeric vectors, specify parameters for a squared-exponential covariance function.

Details

type1 can be either "gaussianNoise" or "correlatedNoise". G(r) is restricted to the -4\pi\rho.0r1 line plus independent Gaussian noise or correlated Gaussian noise, respectively.

type2 can be either "secondDeriv" or "gaussianProcess" to impose smoothness conditions over the interval r2. If type2 is "secondDeriv", a minimum of the second derivative is sought. If type2 is "gaussianProcess", the smoothness is controlled via the Gaussian process using parameters sigma.f and l.

According to our experience, the most efficient way is to impose type1="gaussianNoise" and type2=NA conditions.

Value

An object of type data.
