blvim (version 0.1.1)

sim_is_bipartite: Reports whether the spatial interaction model is bipartite

Description

The function returns TRUE is the spatial interaction model (SIM) is bipartite, that is if the origin locations are distinct from the destination locations (at least from the analysis point of view). The function return FALSE when the SIM uses the same locations for origin and destination.

Usage

sim_is_bipartite(sim)

Value

TRUE if the spatial interaction model is bipartite, FALSE if not.

Arguments

sim

a spatial interaction model object

Examples

positions <- matrix(rnorm(10 * 2), ncol = 2)
distances <- as.matrix(dist(positions))
production <- rep(1, 10)
attractiveness <- c(2, rep(1, 9))
model <- static_blvim(distances, production, 1.5, 1, attractiveness)
## returns TRUE despite the use of a single set of positions
sim_is_bipartite(model)
## now we are clear about the non bipartite nature of the model
model <- static_blvim(distances, production, 1.5, 1, attractiveness,
  bipartite = FALSE
)
sim_is_bipartite(model)
