Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) References See Also Examples

Calculates the empirical pseudomadogram. The empirical pseudomadogram of two random fields X and Y is given by

γ(r):=1/N(r) ∑_{(t_{i},t_{j})|t_{i,j}=r} |(X(t_{i})-X(t_{j}))||(Y(t_{i})-Y(t_{j}))|

where t_{i,j}:=t_{i}-t_{j}, and where N(r) denotes the number of pairs of data points with distancevector t_{i,j}=r.

RFpseudomadogram computes the empirical pseudomadogram for given (multivariate) spatial data.

The spatial coordinates x, y, z should be vectors. For random fields of spatial dimension d > 3 write all vectors as columns of matrix x. In this case do neither use y, nor z and write the columns in gridtriple notation.

If the data is spatially located on a grid a fast algorithm based on the fast Fourier transformed (fft) will be used. As advanced option the calculation method can also be changed for grid data (see RFoptions.)

It is also possible to use RFpseudomadogram to calculate the pseudomadogram (see RFoptions).

RFpseudomadogram returns objects of class RFempVariog.
