rtor.shift: Random toroidal shift on a point data set

In splancs: Spatial and Space-Time Point Pattern Analysis

Random toroidal shift on a point data set

Description

Perform a random toroidal shift on a point data set

Usage

rtor.shift(pts,rect)

Arguments

pts	The point data set to shift
rect	A rectangle defining the region for the toroidal map. If not given, the bounding box of pts is used.

Details

The planar region defined by rect is assumed connected at its top and bottom edges, and at its left and right sides. A random shift is applied to the points and the resulting set of points returned.

Value

A point data set like pts, but after application of a random toroidal shift along the x and y axes.
