An object of class "NumArcs"
.
Returns the number of arcs of Arc Slice Proximity Catch Digraphs (AS-PCDs)
whose vertices are the 2D data set, Xp
.
It also provides number of vertices (i.e., number of data points inside the triangle)
and indices of the data points that reside in the triangle.
The data points could be inside or outside a general
triangle tri
\(=T(A,B,C)=\)(rv=1,rv=2,rv=3)
,
with vertices of tri
stacked row-wise.
AS proximity regions are defined with respect to the triangle tri
and vertex regions are based on the center, \(M=(m_1,m_2)\) in Cartesian coordinates
or \(M=(\alpha,\beta,\gamma)\) in barycentric coordinates
in the interior of the triangle tri
or based on circumcenter of tri
;
default is M="CC"
, i.e., circumcenter of tri
.
For the number of arcs, loops are not allowed,
so arcs are only possible for points inside the triangle, tri
.
