pp.subsample: Point process random subsample

Description

Generates random subsample based on density estimate of observations

Usage

pp.subsample(
  x,
  n,
  window = "hull",
  sigma = "Scott",
  wts = NULL,
  gradient = 1,
  edge = FALSE
)

Arguments

x

An sp class SpatialPointsDataFrame or SpatialPoints object

n

Number of random samples to generate

window

Type of window (hull or extent)

sigma

Bandwidth selection method for KDE, default is 'Scott'. Options are 'Scott', 'Stoyan', 'Diggle', 'likelihood', and 'geometry'

wts

Optional vector of weights corresponding to point pattern

gradient

A scaling factor applied to the sigma parameter used to adjust the gradient decent of the density estimate. The default is 1, for no adjustment (downweight < 1 | upweight > 1)

edge

Apply Diggle edge correction (TRUE/FALSE)

Value

sp class SpatialPointsDataFrame containing random subsamples
