format_data: Format data for fitting a glmmfields model

Description

Format data for fitting a glmmfields model

Usage

format_data(
  data,
  y,
  X,
  time,
  lon = "lon",
  lat = "lat",
  station = NULL,
  nknots = 25L,
  covariance = c("squared-exponential", "exponential", "matern"),
  fixed_intercept = FALSE,
  cluster = c("pam", "kmeans")
)

Arguments

data

A data frame to be formatted

y

A numeric vector of the response

X

A matrix of the predictors

time

A character object giving the name of the time column

lon

A character object giving the name of the longitude column

lat

A character object giving the name of the latitude column

station

A numeric vector giving the integer ID of the station

nknots

The number of knots

covariance

The type of covariance function

fixed_intercept

Should the intercept be fixed?

cluster

The type of clustering algorithm used to determine the not locations. "pam" = pam. kmeans is faster for large datasets.
