gamma_exp: Gamma-exponential correlation function

gamma_expR Documentation

Gamma-exponential correlation function

Description

For points x, xp, and a pair of hyperparameters gamma and theta, gives the gamma-exponential correlation between the two points.

Usage

gamma_exp(x, xp, hp)

Arguments

x

A data.frame of rows corresponding to position vectors

xp

A data.frame of rows corresponding to position vectors

hp

The hyperparameters theta (correlation length) and gamma (exponent), as a named list

Details

The gamma-exponential correlation function, for d = |x-x'|, is given by \exp(-(d/\theta)^\gamma). Gamma must be between 0 (exclusive) and 2 (inclusive).

Value

The gamma-exponential correlation between x and xp.
