threads

(optional) number of threads to use.

parallel.level

(optional) level of parallelism, low or high.

bidirectional

(optional) whether to examine bidirectional causality.

detrend

(optional) whether to remove the linear trend.

progressbar

(optional) whether to show the progress bar.

Value

A list

xmap

cross mapping results

varname

names of causal and effect variable

bidirectional

whether to examine bidirectional causality

Examples

columbus = sf::read_sf(system.file("case/columbus.gpkg", package="spEDM"))

g = gccm(columbus,"hoval","crime",libsizes = seq(5,45,5),E = 6)
g
plot(g, ylimits = c(0,0.85))
