Draw new samples from the supplied data given its mean and covariances.

Description

Creates new observation of the data given its specific means and shapes. typically applied to a cluster subset of data. ie draw from cluster 'a', then assign to cluster 'b'.

Usage

rnorm_from(
  data,
  n_obs = 1,
  var_coeff = 1,
  method = c("pearson", "kendall", "spearman")
)

Arguments

data	A data.frame or matrix to sample from.
n_obs	Number of new observations to draw. Defaults to 1.
var_coeff	Variance coefficient, closer to 0 make points near the median, above 1 makes more points further away from the median. Defaults to 1.
method	The method of the covariance matrix. Expects "person" (continuous numeric), "kendall" or "spearman" (latter two are ranked based ordinal).

Value

A data.frame, sampled observations given the means and covariance of the data based on with column names kept.

Examples

library(cheem)

sub <- mtcars[mtcars$cyl == 6, ]
## Draw 3 new observations in the shape of 6 cylinder vehicles, with reduced variance.
rnorm_from(data = sub, n_obs = 3, var_coeff = .5)
