[R] uniform and clumped point plots

2006-05-21 Thread Adrian Baddeley
Dear Terry the R package 'spatstat' contains a large number of functions for generating point patterns with varying degrees of randomness or orderliness. They include: rpoint n independent random points rpoispprandom number of independent random points rs

Perhaps you're looking for something along the lines of Sobol sequences - refer Section 7.7 of Numerical Recipes in C by Press et al. Sean On 18/05/06, Ben Bolker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Beutel, Terry S dpi.qld.gov.au> writes: > > > > > I am trying to generate two dimensional random coordin

Hi, If you are looking for data clustered in two dimenstions you can use the multivariate normal package. Ritwik Sinha http://darwin.cwru.edu/~rsinha [[alternative HTML version deleted]] __ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.et

Dear Terry, I'm not entirely sure if this is what you're looking for, but here's my suggestion. To make more uniformly distributed points, you might try something like xy <- expand.grid(list(seq(0,1,.1), seq(0,1,.1))) plot(jitter(xy[,1], 1.5), jitter(xy[,2], 1.5)) Like I said, I don't know if th

I am trying to generate two dimensional random coordinates. For randomly distributed data I have simply used >xy<-cbind(runif(100),runif(100)) However I also want to generate coordinates that are more uniformly distributed, and coordinates that are more contagiously distributed than the abov
