arcsPE1D {pcds}

The arcs of Proportional Edge Proximity Catch Digraph (PE-PCD) for 1D data - multiple interval case

Description

An object of class "PCDs". Returns arcs of PE-PCD as tails (or sources) and heads (or arrow ends) and related parameters and the quantities of the digraph. The vertices of the PE-PCD are the 1D data points in Xp in the multiple interval case. Yp determines the end points of the intervals.

If there are duplicates of Yp points, only one point is retained for each duplicate value, and a warning message is printed.

For this function, PE proximity regions are constructed data points inside or outside the intervals based on Yp points with expansion parameter r \ge 1 and centrality parameter c \in (0,1). That is, for this function, arcs may exist for points in the middle or end-intervals. It also provides various descriptions and quantities about the arcs of the PE-PCD such as number of arcs, arc density, etc.

Usage

arcsPE1D(Xp, Yp, r, c = 0.5)

Arguments

Xp

A set or vector of 1D points which constitute the vertices of the PE-PCD.

Yp

A set or vector of 1D points which constitute the end points of the intervals.

r

A positive real number which serves as the expansion parameter in PE proximity region; must be \ge 1.

c

A positive real number in (0,1) parameterizing the center inside middle intervals with the default c=.5. For the interval, (a,b), the parameterized center is M_c=a+c(b-a).

Value

A list with the elements

type

A description of the type of the digraph

parameters

Parameters of the digraph, here, they are expansion and centrality parameters.

tess.points

Tessellation points, i.e., points on which the tessellation of the study region is performed, here, tessellation is the intervalization of the real line based on Yp points.

tess.name

Name of the tessellation points tess.points

vertices

Vertices of the digraph, Xp points

vert.name

Name of the data set which constitute the vertices of the digraph

S

Tails (or sources) of the arcs of PE-PCD for 1D data

E

Heads (or arrow ends) of the arcs of PE-PCD for 1D data

mtitle

Text for "main" title in the plot of the digraph

quant

Various quantities for the digraph: number of vertices, number of partition points, number of intervals, number of arcs, and arc density.
