Test conditions for neighbors and neighbors of neighbors

Description

Evaluate conditions for cells neighboring specific classes and classify them if conditions are true.

Usage

cond.4.nofn(
  attTbl,
  ngbList,
  rNumb = FALSE,
  classVector,
  class,
  nbs_of,
  cond,
  min.bord = NULL,
  max.iter = +Inf,
  peval = 1,
  directional = FALSE,
  ovw_class = FALSE,
  hgrowth = FALSE
)

Arguments

attTbl

data.frame, the attribute table returned by the function attTbl.

ngbList

list, the list of neighborhoods returned by the function ngbList.

rNumb

logic, the neighborhoods of the argument ngbList are identified by cell numbers (rNumb=FALSE) or by row numbers (rNumb=TRUE) (see ngbList). It is advised to use row numbers for large rasters.

classVector

numeric vector, defines the cells in the attribute table that have already been classified. See conditions for more information about class vectors.

class

numeric, the classification number to assign to all cells that meet the function conditions.

nbs_of

numeric or numeric vector, indicates the class(es) of focal and anchor cells. Conditions are only evaluated at positions adjacent to anchor and focal cells. If the classification number assigned with the argument class is also included in the argument nbs_of, the function takes into account class continuity (see conditions).

cond

character string, the conditions a cell have to meet to be classified as indicated by the argument class. The classification number is only assigned to unclassified cells unless the argument ovw_class = TRUE. See conditions for more details.

min.bord

numeric value between 0 and 1. A test cell is classified if conditions are true and if among its bordering cells a percentage equal or greater than min.bord belong to one of the classes of nbs_of. Percentages are computed counting only valid neighbors (i.e., neighbors with complete cases).

max.iter

integer, the maximum number of iterations.

peval

numeric value between 0 and 1. If absolute or relative neighborhood conditions are considered, test cells are classified if the number of positive evaluations is equal or greater than the percentage specified by the argument peval (see conditions).

directional

logic, absolute or relative neighborhood conditions are tested using the directional neighborhood (see conditions).

ovw_class

logic, reclassify cells that were already classified and that meet the function conditions.

hgrowth

logic, if true the classes in nbs_of are treated as discrete raster objects and the argument class is ignored.

Details

  • The function evaluates the conditions of the argument cond for all unclassified cells in the neighborhood of focal and anchor cells (specified by the argument nbs_of). Unclassified cells are NA-cells in classVector.

  • Cells that meet the function conditions are classified as indicted by the argument class.

  • Class continuity is considered if the classification number assigned with the argument class is also included in the argument nbs_of. This means that, at each iteration, newly classified cells become focal cells and conditions are tested in their neighborhood.

  • All types of conditions can be used. The condition string can only include one neighborhood condition ('{}') (see conditions).

Homogeneous growth (hgrowth)

If the argument hgrowth is true the classes in nbs_of are treated as discrete raster objects and the argument class is ignored. Iterations proceed as follow:

  • cells contiguous to the first element of nbs_of are evaluated against the classification rules and, when evaluations are true, cells are assigned to that element;

  • the same process is repeated for cells contiguous to the second element of nbs_of, then for cells contiguous to the third element and so on until the last element of nbs_of;

  • once cells contiguous to the last element of nbs_of are evaluated the iteration is complete;

  • cells classified in one iteration become focal cells in the next iteration;

  • a new iteration starts as long as new cells were classified in the previous iteration and if the iteration number < max.iter.

Value

Update classVector with the new cells that were classified by the function. See conditions for more details about class vectors.
