autocov_dist {spdep} | R Documentation |
Calculates the autocovariate to be used in autonormal, autopoisson or autologistic regression. Three distance-weighting schemes are available.
autocov_dist(z, xy, nbs = 1, type = "inverse", zero.policy = NULL, style = "W", longlat=NULL)
z |
the response variable |
xy |
a matrix of coordinates or a SpatialPoints object |
nbs |
neighbourhood radius; default is 1 |
type |
the weighting scheme: "one" gives equal weight to all data points in the neighbourhood; "inverse" (the default) weights by inverse distance; "inverse.squared" weights by the square of "inverse" |
zero.policy |
default NULL, use global option value; if FALSE stop with error for any empty neighbour sets, if TRUE permit the weights list to be formed with zero-length weights vectors |
style |
style' can take values W, B, C, U, and S; W gives mean values for neighbours |
longlat |
TRUE if point coordinates are longitude-latitude decimal, in which case distances are measured in kilometers; if xy is a SpatialPoints object, the value is taken from the object itself |
