inla.spde.make.block.A: Observation matrices for mesh models.

Description Usage Arguments Author(s) See Also

Description

Constructs observation/prediction weight matrices for numerical integration schemes for regional data problems. Primarily intended for internal use by inla.spde.make.A.

Usage

inla.spde.make.block.A(A, block, n.block = max(block),
                       weights = NULL,
                       rescale = c("none", "count", "weights", "sum"))

Arguments

A

A precomputed observation/prediction matrix for locations that are to be joined.

block

Indices specifying block groupings: Entries with the same block value are joined into a single row in the resulting matrix, and the block values are the row indices.

n.block

The number of blocks.

weights

Optional scaling weights to be applied row-wise to the input A matrix.

rescale

Specifies what scaling method should be used when joining the rows of the A matrix as grouped by the block specification.

  • 'none': Straight sum, no rescaling.

  • 'count': Divide by the number of entries in the block.

  • 'weights': Divide by the sum of the weight values within each block.

  • 'sum': Divide by the resulting row sums.
