uniquemap.ppp: Map Duplicate Entries to Unique Entries

In spatstat.geom: Geometrical Functionality of the 'spatstat' Family

Map Duplicate Entries to Unique Entries

Description

Determine whether points in a point pattern are duplicated, choose a unique representative for each set of duplicates, and map the duplicates to the unique representative.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'ppp'
uniquemap(x)

## S3 method for class 'lpp'
uniquemap(x)

## S3 method for class 'ppx'
uniquemap(x)

Arguments

x	A point pattern (object of class "ppp", "lpp", "pp3" or "ppx").

Details

The function uniquemap is generic, with methods for point patterns, and a default method.

This function determines whether any points of x are duplicated, and constructs a mapping of the indices of x so that all duplicates are mapped to a unique representative index.

The result is an integer vector u such that u[j] = i if the points x[i] and x[j] are identical and point i has been chosen as the unique representative. The entry u[i] = i means either that point i is unique, or that it has been chosen as the unique representative of its equivalence class.

Value

An integer vector.
