cor_cauchy {mcgf}

Calculate Cauchy correlation

Description

Calculate Cauchy correlation

Usage

cor_cauchy(x, a, alpha, nu = 1, nugget = 0, is.dist = FALSE)

Arguments

x

A numeric vector, matrix, or array.

a

Smooth parameter, a>0.

alpha

Scale parameter, \alpha\in(0, 1].

nu

Power parameter, \nu>0. Default is 1.

nugget

The nugget effect \in[0, 1].

is.dist

Logical; if TRUE, x is a distance matrix or an array of distance matrices.

Details

The Cauchy correlation function with scale parameter a and smooth parameter \alpha has the form

C(x)=(1-\text{nugget})(a|x|^{2\alpha} + 1)^{-\nu}+\text{nugget}\cdot \delta_{x=0},

where \delta_{x=0} is 1 when x=0 and 0 otherwise.

Value

Correlations of the same dimension as x.
