rbdr: Simulation of Boolean Model of Deterministic Rectangles

In lacunaritycovariance: Gliding Box Lacunarity and Other Metrics for 2D Random Closed Sets

Simulation of Boolean Model of Deterministic Rectangles

Description

Functions for simulating a Boolean model with grains that are deterministic rectangles. A Boolean model is a two stage model, first the locations (called germs) of grains are randomly distributed according to a Poisson point process, then a random grain is placed on each germ independently. An introduction can be found in (Chiu et al., 2013). Also described in this help file are functions for calculating the coverage probability and covariance.

Usage

rbdr(lambda, grain, win, seed = NULL)

bdrcoverageprob(lambda, grain)

bdrcovar(lambda, grain, xy)

Arguments

lambda	Intensity of the germ process (which is a Poisson point process)
grain	Rectangle object specifying the grain
win	The window to simulate in (an owin object)
seed	Optional input (default in NULL). Is an integer passed to set.seed. Used to reproduce patterns exactly.
xy	A raster object that specifies the pixel coordinates of the desired covariance image. xy works in similar fashion to passing an image or pixel mask through the xy argument of as.mask in spatstat.

Value

Depends on the function used (see Functions section).

Functions

• rbdr(): Returns an owin that is a set generated by simulating a Boolean model with a specified intensity and fixed rectangular grain. The window information is not contained in this object. If the simulated set is empty then an empty owin object is returned. The point process of germs is generated using spatstat's rpoispp.

• bdrcoverageprob(): Returns the true coverage probability given the intensity and grain.

• bdrcovar(): Returns an image of the covariance as calculated from disc radius and intensity.

WARNING

The returned object of rbdr is only the foreground of a binary map and thus can have much smaller extent than the simulation window (e.g. when the simulated set is empty).

Examples

grain <- owin(xrange = c(-5, 5), yrange = c(-5, 5))
win <- owin(xrange = c(0, 100), c(0, 100))
lambda <- 4.2064E-3
xi <- rbdr(lambda, grain, win)

cp_theoretical <- bdrcoverageprob(lambda, grain)
xy <- as.mask(dilationAny(win, win), eps = c(1, 1))
cvc_theoretical <- bdrcovar(lambda, grain, xy)
