sphere.plugin.hdr: Spherical plug-in estimation of HDRs

In HDiR: Directional Highest Density Regions

Spherical plug-in estimation of HDRs

Description

This function computes the spherical plug-in estimator of HDRs.

Usage

sphere.plugin.hdr(sample,bw="none",ngrid=500,
                  tau=NULL,level=NULL,nborder=1000,tol=0.01,
                  mesh=40,deg=3,plot.hdr=TRUE, col=NULL)

Arguments

sample	A matrix whose rows represent points on the unit sphere in Cartesian coordinates. If a row norm is different from one, a message appears indicating that they must be standardized.
bw	Smoothing parameter to be used. It can be a numeric value directly selected by the user. According to Directional package, this could be also either "none" for cross validation or "rot" for the rule of thumb suggested by García-Portugués (2013). Moreover, function sphere.boot.bw allows to select the new smoothing parameter proposed in Saavedra-Nieves and Crujeiras (2021). Default bw="none".
ngrid	Sets the resolution of the density calculation. Default ngrid=500.
tau	Numeric probability. According to Saavedra-Nieves and Crujeiras (2021), 1-tau represents the probability coverage required for HDR. If tau=NULL, a value for the threshold level of the HDR must be provided.
level	Numeric threshold of the HDR provided by the user. When level is larger than the maximum value of the density, the HDR is equal to the emptyset. If level is smaller than the minimum of the density, the HDR coincides with the support distribution. If level=NULL, a value for the probability coverage 1-tau of the HDR must be provided.
nborder	Maximum number of HDRs boundary points to be represented. Default nborder= 1000.
tol	Tolerance parameter to determinate the boundary of HDRs. Default tol=0.01.
mesh	A numeric value 10, 20 or 40 indicating the 3D cartesian mesh used for numerical integration on the unit shere. Default mesh=40 considering a total of 32000 triangular cells on the sphere. If mesh=20 or mesh=10, 8000 triangular cells or 2000 are considered, respectively.
deg	Integer string indicating the degree (from 0 to 6) of the quadrature rules for triangles on the sphere. Default deg=6.
plot.hdr	Logical string. If TRUE, the boundary of the level set or the HDR are represented graphically. Default plot.hdr=TRUE.
col	Color number for plotting the boundary of the HDR. Default "darkgray".

Details

A detailed definition of plug-in estimators for directional HDRs is given in Saavedra-Nieves and Crujeiras (2021). Moreover, the density quantile algorithm proposed in Hyndman (1996) is used to compute the threshold of HDR.

Value

If tau is provided, a list with the next components:

hdr	A matrix of rows of points on the HDR boundary.
prob.content	Probability coverage 1-tau.
level	Threshold associated to the probability content 1-tau.
bw	Value of the smoothing parameter used for kernel density estimation.

If level is provided, a list with the next components:

levelset	A matrix of rows of points on the level set boundary or a character indicating if the level set is equal to the emptyset or the support distribution.
prob.content	Probability coverage 1-tau associated to the level value.
level	Threshold of the level set.
bw	Value of the smoothing parameter used for kernel density estimation.
