Images with Multi-directional Transiograms

Description

The function plots 2-D sections of a multidirectional transiogram computed without any ellipsoidal interpolation.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'pemt'
image(x, main, mar, ask = TRUE, ..., 
      nlevels = 10, contour = TRUE)

Arguments

x	an object of class pemt.
main	the main title (on top) whose font and size are fixed.
mar	a scalar or a numerical vector of the form c(bottom, left, top, right) which gives the number of margin lines to be specified on the four sides of image to plot. See par(mar=.).
ask	a logical value; if TRUE, the user is asked for input, before each plot. See par(ask=.).
...	other arguments to pass to the function image.
nlevels	the number of levels to pass to the function contour.
contour	logical. If TRUE, the function contour is used to draw contour lines over images. Defaults to TRUE.

Details

A multidimensional transiogram is a diagram which shows the transition probabilities for a single pair of categories. The probability is computed for any lag vector h through

\mbox{expm} (\Vert h \Vert R_h),

where entries of R_h are not ellipsoidally interpolated, but they are estimated for the direction specified by the vector h.

The exponential matrix is evaluated by the scaling and squaring algorithm.

Value

An image is produced on the current graphics device. No values are returned.
