RPcoin: Random coin method

Description Usage Arguments Value References See Also Examples

Description

The random coin method (or dilution method) is a simulation method for stationary Gaussian random fields. It is based on the following procedure: For a stationary Poisson point process on R^d consider the random field

Y(y) = ∑_{x\in X} f(y-x)

for a function f. The covariance of Y is proportional to the convolution

C(h) = \int f(x)f(x+h) dx

If the intensity of the Poisson point process increases, the random field Y approaches a Gaussian random field with covariance function C.

RPcoins(phi, shape, boxcox, intensity, method) 

RPaverage(phi, shape, boxcox, intensity, method) 

Arguments

phi

object of class RMmodel; specifies the covariance function of the Poisson process; either phi or shape must be given.

shape

object of class RMmodel; specifies the function which is attached to the Poisson points; note that this is not the covariance function of the simulated random field.

boxcox

the one or two parameters of the box cox transformation. If not given, the globally defined parameters are used. See RFboxcox for details.

intensity

positive number, intensity of the underlying Poisson point process.

method

integer. Default is the value 0 which addresses the current standard procedure. There might be further methods implemented mainly for internal purposes.

Value

RPcoins returns an object of class RMmodel.
