s_curve_hole: S-curve with a hole data set.

In jlmelville/snedata: SNE Simulation Dataset Functions

S-curve with a hole data set.

Description

Simulation data randomly sampled from an S-shaped curve with a hole.

Usage

s_curve_hole(n_samples = 100, noise = 0)

Arguments

n_samples	The number of points to create making up the S-shaped curve. Fewer than n_samples points will be returned because some are removed to make the hole.
noise	Add random noise normally-distributed with mean 0 and standard deviation noise.

Details

Creates a series of points sampled from an S-shaped curve in 3D, with optional normally-distributed noise. The S shape is oriented such that you should be able to see it if you plot the X and Z columns. There is a circular hole in the middle of the curve, centered at Y = 0.

Points are colored based on their distance along the curve.

This data set is based on s_curve is used to assess the behavior of the PaCMAP method of Wang and co-workers (2021).

Value

Data frame with x, y, z columns containing the coordinates of the points and color the RGB color.
