curvefits_LocalModel {phenofit}

curvefits by local model functions of TIMESAT

Description

Local model functions f_L(t), f_C(t) and f_R(t) describe the VI variation in intervals around the left minima, the central maxima and the right minima.

Local model function are merged into global model function via merge_LocalModels() and Per J\"onsson et al. (2004; their Eq. 12), where cut-off function sharply drop from 1 to 0 in small intervals around (t_L + t_C)/2 and (t_C + t_R)/2.

F(t)= \begin{cases} \alpha(t) f_{L}(t)+[1-\alpha(t)] f_{C}(t), t_{L}<t<t_{C} \\ \beta(t) f_{C}(t)+[1-\beta(t)] f_{R}(t), t_{C}<t<t_{R}\end{cases}

Usage

curvefits_LocalModel(INPUT, brks, options = list(), ...)

merge_LocalModels(fits)

Arguments

INPUT

A list object with the elements of 't', 'y', 'w', 'Tn' (optional) and 'ylu', returned by check_input.

brks

A list object with the elements of 'fit' and 'dt', returned by season or season_mov, which contains the growing season division information.

options

see section: options for fitting for details.

other parameters to curvefit()

fits

List objects returned by curvefits_LocalModel() (not curvefits()).

options for fitting

• methods (default ⁠c('AG', 'Beck', 'Elmore', 'Zhang')``): Fine curve fitting methods, can be one or more of ⁠c('AG', 'Beck', 'Elmore', 'Zhang', 'Gu', 'Klos')‘. Note that ’Gu' and 'Klos' are very slow.

• iters (default 2): max iterations of fine fitting.

• wFUN (default wTSM): Character or function, weights updating function of fine fitting function.

• wmin (default 0.1): min weights in the weights updating procedure.

• use.rough (default FALSE): Whether to use rough fitting smoothed time-series as input? If false, smoothed VI by rough fitting will be used for Phenological metrics extraction; If true, original input y will be used (rough fitting is used to divide growing seasons and update weights.

• use.y0 (default TRUE): boolean. whether to use original y0 as the input of plot_input, note that not for curve fitting. y0 is the original value before the process of check_input.

• nextend (default 2): Extend curve fitting window, until nextend good or marginal points are found in the previous and subsequent growing season.

• maxExtendMonth (default 1): Search good or marginal good values in previous and subsequent maxExtendMonth period.

• minExtendMonth (default 0.5): Extend period defined by nextend and maxExtendMonth, should be no shorter than minExtendMonth. When all points of the input time-series are good value, then the extending period will be too short. In that situation, we can't make sure the connection between different growing seasons is smoothing.

• minPercValid: (default 0, not use). If the percentage of good- and marginal- quality points is less than minPercValid, curve fiting result is set to NA.

• minT: (not use). If Tn not provided in INPUT, minT will not be used. minT use night temperature Tn to define backgroud value (days with Tn < minT treated as ungrowing season).
