mat.exp {dae}

Forms an exponential correlation matrix

Description

Form the correlation matrix of order equal to the length of coordinates. The matrix has diagonal elements equal to one and the off-diagonal element in the ith row and jth column equal to \rho^k where k = |coordinate[i]- coordinate[j]|.

Usage

mat.exp(rho, coordinates)

Arguments

rho

The correlation for points a distance of one apart.

coordinates

The coordinates of points whose correlation matrix is to be formed.

Value

A correlation matrix whose elements depend on the power of the absolute distance apart.
