Display Contours with Multi-directional Transiograms
Description
The function draws the -D sections contour plots of a multi-directional transiogram computed without any ellipsoidal interpolation and superpose the contour lines of the theoretical transition probabilities.
Usage
## S3 method for class 'pemt'
contour(x, nlevels = 10, col = c("black", "blue"), main,
mar, ask = TRUE, ...)
Arguments
x |
an object of class |
nlevels |
the number of levels to pass to the function |
col |
a vector of two colors to pass to the function |
main |
the main title (on top) whose font and size are fixed. |
mar |
a scalar or a numerical vector of the form |
ask |
a logical value; if |
... |
other arguments to pass to the function |
Details
A multidimensional transiogram is a diagram which shows the transition probabilities for a single pair of categories. The probability is computed for any lag vector through
where entries of are not ellipsoidally interpolated, but they are estimated for the direction specified by the vector
.
The exponential matrix is evaluated by the scaling and squaring algorithm.
Value
An image is produced on the current graphics device. No values are returned.
