wrappers {geoR}

Wrappers for the C functions used in geoR

Description

These functions are wrappers for some (but not all) the C functions included in the geoR package.
Typically the C code is directly called from the geoR functions but these functions allows independent calls.

Usage

diffpairs(coords, data)
loccoords(coords, locations)
.diagquadraticformXAX(X, lowerA, diagA) 
.bilinearformXAY(X, lowerA, diagA, Y) 
.corr.diaglowertri(coords, cov.model, phi, kappa)
.Ccor.spatial(x, phi, kappa, cov.model)

Arguments

coords

an n \times 2 matrix with the data coordinates.

data

an vector with the data values.

locations

an N \times 2 matrix with the coordinates of the prediction locations.

lowerA

a vector with the diagonal terms of the symmetric matrix A.

diagA

a vector with the diagonal terms of the symmetric matrix A.

X

a matrix with conforming dimensions.

Y

a matrix with conforming dimensions.

cov.model

covariance model, see cov.spatial for options and more details.

phi

numerical value of the correlation function parameter phi.

kappa

numerical value of the correlation function parameter kappa.

x

a vector of distances.

Value

The outputs for the different functions are:

diffpairs

returns a list with elements dist - the distance between pairs of points, and diff - the difference between the values of the attributes.

loccoords

returns a n \times N matrix with distances between data points and prediction locations.

diagquadraticformXAX

returns a vector with the diagonal term of the quadratic form X' A X.

bilinearformXAY

returns a vector or a matrix with the terms of the quadratic form X' A Y.

corr.diaglowertri

returns the lower triangle of the correlation matrix, including the diagonal.

Ccor.spatial

returns a vector of values of spatial correlations.
