Generation of spatial population includes multiple auxiliary variables along with spatially varying model parameters generated based on linear function of latitudes and longitudes
Description
Generation of spatial population includes multiple auxiliary variables along with spatially varying model parameters generated based on linear function of latitudes and longitudes
Usage
SpPOP_linear2(N, k, xlat, ylong)
Arguments
N |
integer; population size i.e. N= (k * k) |
k |
integer |
xlat |
numeric vector |
ylong |
numeric vector |
Value
The developed function returns a dataframe of spatially generated population consist of simulated response variable (i.e. Y) along with their spatial coordinates, spatially varying coefficients and three explanatory variables (i.e. X1, X2, and X3). The auxiliary variables have been generated independently from uniform distribution U(0,1) and the regression coefficients are generated as linear function of latitudes and longitudes.
