)spde.matern.operators returns an object of
class "rSPDEobj. This object contains the
quantities listed in the output of fractional.operators()
as well as the smoothness parameter \(\nu\).
Vector with the, possibly spatially varying, range parameter evaluated at the locations of the mesh used for the finite element discretization of the SPDE.
Vector with the, possibly spatially varying, precision parameter evaluated at the locations of the mesh used for the finite element discretization of the SPDE.
Theta parameter that connects B.tau and B.kappa to tau and kappa through a log-linear regression, in case the parameterization is spde,
and that connects B.sigma and B.range to tau and kappa in case the parameterization is matern.
Matrix with specification of log-linear model for \(\tau\). Will be used if parameterization = 'spde'.
Matrix with specification of log-linear model for \(\kappa\). Will be used if parameterization = 'spde'.
Matrix with specification of log-linear model for \(\sigma\). Will be used if parameterization = 'matern'.
Matrix with specification of log-linear model for \(\rho\), which is a range-like parameter (it is exactly the range parameter in the stationary case). Will be used if parameterization = 'matern'.
smoothness parameter. Will be used if the parameterization is 'spde'.
Shape parameter of the covariance function. Will be used if the parameterization is 'matern'.
Which parameterization to use? matern uses range, std. deviation and nu (smoothness). spde uses kappa, tau and nu (smoothness). The default is matern.
The stiffness matrix of a finite element discretization of the domain of interest.
The mass matrix of a finite element discretization of the domain of interest.
The dimension of the domain. Does not need to be given if
mesh is used.
An optional metric_graph object. Replaces d, C and G.
An optional inla mesh. d, C and G
must be given if mesh is not given.
The range of the mesh. Will be used to provide starting values for the parameters. Will be used if mesh and graph are NULL, and if one of the parameters (kappa or tau for spde parameterization, or sigma or range for matern parameterization) are not provided.
The mesh locations used to construct the matrices C and G. This option should be provided if one wants to use the rspde_lme() function and will not provide neither graph nor mesh. Only works for 1d data. Does not work for metric graphs. For metric graphs you should supply the graph using the graph argument.
The order of the rational approximation, which needs to be a positive integer. The default value is 1.
The type of the rational approximation. The options are "covariance" and "operator". The default is "covariance".
Which type of rational approximation should be used? The current types are "chebfun", "brasil" or "chebfunLB".
The approximation is based on a rational approximation of the
fractional operator \((\kappa(s)^2 -\Delta)^\beta\), where
\(\beta = (\nu + d/2)/2\). This results in an approximate model
on the form $$P_l u(s) = P_r W,$$ where \(P_j = p_j(L)\) are
non-fractional operators defined in terms of polynomials \(p_j\) for
\(j=l,r\). The order of \(p_r\) is given by m and the order
of \(p_l\) is \(m + m_\beta\) where \(m_\beta\) is the integer
part of \(\beta\) if \(\beta>1\) and \(m_\beta = 1\) otherwise.
The discrete approximation can be written as \(u = P_r x\) where
\(x \sim N(0,Q^{-1})\)
and \(Q = P_l^T C^{-1} P_l\). Note that the matrices \(P_r\) and
\(Q\) may be be ill-conditioned for \(m>1\).
In this case, the metehods in operator.operations()
should be used for operations involving the matrices, since
these methods are more numerically stable.
