An object of class "PCDs"
.
Returns arcs of PE-PCD as tails (or sources) and heads (or arrow ends)
and related parameters and the quantities of the digraph.
The vertices of the PE-PCD are the 1D data points in Xp
in the multiple interval case.
Yp
determines the end points of the intervals.
If there are duplicates of Yp
points,
only one point is retained for each duplicate value,
and a warning message is printed.
For this function,
PE proximity regions are constructed data points inside or outside the intervals based
on Yp
points with expansion parameter \(r \ge 1\)
and centrality parameter \(c \in (0,1)\). That is, for this function,
arcs may exist for points in the middle or end-intervals.
It also provides various descriptions and quantities about the arcs of the PE-PCD
such as number of arcs, arc density, etc.
