lhs: Latin Hypercube sampling

Description

Draw a (random) Latin Hypercube (LH) sample of size n from in the region outlined by the provided rectangle

Usage

lhs(n, rect, shape=NULL, mode=NULL)

Arguments

n

Size of the LH sample

rect

Rectangle describing the domain from which the LH sample is to be taken. The rectangle should be a matrix or data.frame with ncol(rect) = 2, and number of rows equal to the dimension of the domain. For 1-d data, a vector of length 2 is allowed

shape

Optional vector of shape parameters for the Beta distribution. Vector of length equal to the dimension of the domain, with elements > 1. If this is specified, the LH sample is proportional to a joint pdf formed by independent Beta distributions in each dimension of the domain, scaled and shifted to have support defined by rect. Only concave Beta distributions with shape > 1 are supported.

mode

Optional vector of mode values for the Beta distribution. Vector of length equal to the dimension of the domain, with elements within the support defined by rect. If shape is specified, but this is not, then the scaled Beta distributions will be symmetric

Value

The output is a matrix with n rows and nrow(rect) columns. Each of the n rows represents a sample point.
