spde_covariance {MetricGraph}R Documentation

Covariance function for Whittle-Matérn fields

Description

Computes the covariance function for a Whittle-Matérn field.

Usage

spde_covariance(P, kappa, tau, range, sigma, alpha, graph)

Arguments

P

Location (edge number and normalized location on the edge) for the location to evaluate the covariance function at.

kappa

Parameter kappa from the SPDE.

tau

Parameter tau from the SPDE.

range

Range parameter.

sigma

Standard deviation parameter.

alpha

Smoothness parameter (1 or 2).

graph

A metric_graph object.

Details

Compute the covariance function \rho(P,s_i) where P is the provided location and s_i are all locations in the mesh of the graph.

Value

Vector with the covariance function evaluate at the mesh locations.
