)An ordered numeric vector with the bandwidths
A feature collection of linestrings representing the underlying network. The geometries must be simple Linestrings (may crash if some geometries are invalid) without MultiLineSring.
events A feature collection of points representing the events on the network. The points will be snapped on the network to their closest line.
A vector representing the weight of each event
The name of the kernel to use. Must be one of triangle, gaussian, tricube, cosine, triweight, quartic, epanechnikov or uniform.
The method to use when calculating the NKDE, must be one of simple / discontinuous / continuous (see nkde details for more information)
A Boolean indicating if the correction factor for edge effect must be used.
A feature collection of polygons representing the limits of the study area.
A boolean indicating if an adaptive bandwidth must be used. If adaptive = TRUE, the local bandwidth are derived from the global bandwidths (bws)
A vector indicating the maximum value an adaptive bandwidth can reach. Higher values will be trimmed. It must have the same length as bws.
A matrix giving the bandwidths for each observation and for each global bandwidth. This is usefull when the user want to use a different method from Abramson's smoothing regimen.
when using the continuous and discontinuous methods, the calculation time and memory use can go wild if the network has many small edges (area with many of intersections and many events). To avoid it, it is possible to set here a maximum depth. Considering that the kernel is divided at intersections, a value of 10 should yield good estimates in most cases. A larger value can be used without a problem for the discontinuous method. For the continuous method, a larger value will strongly impact calculation speed.
The number of digits to retain from the spatial coordinates. It ensures that topology is good when building the network. Default is 3. Too high a precision (high number of digits) might break some connections
A float indicating the minimum distance between the events and the lines' extremities when adding the point to the network. When points are closer, they are added at the extremity of the lines.
A double indicating if the events must be aggregated within a distance. If NULL, the events are aggregated only by rounding the coordinates.
A Boolean indicating if sparse or regular matrices should be used by the Rcpp functions. These matrices are used to store edge indices between two nodes in a graph. Regular matrices are faster, but require more memory, in particular with multiprocessing. Sparse matrices are slower (a bit), but require much less memory.
A string indicating what to do when density is 0 when calculating LOO density estimate for an isolated event. "min_double" (default) replace the 0 value by the minimum double possible on the machine. "remove" will remove them from the final score. The first approach penalizes more strongly the small bandwidths.
A vector of two values indicating how the study area must be split when performing the calculus. Default is c(1,1) (no split). A finer grid could reduce memory usage and increase speed when a large dataset is used. When using multiprocessing, the work in each grid is dispatched between the workers.
A float between 0 and 1 indicating the percentage of quadra to keep in the calculus. For large datasets, it may be useful to limit the bandwidth evaluation and thus reduce calculation time.
A Boolean, indicating if the function should print messages about the process.
A Boolean indicating if the geometry checks must be run before the operation. This might take some times, but it will ensure that the CRS of the provided objects are valid and identical, and that geometries are valid.
A dataframe with two columns, one for the bandwidths and the second for the Cronie and Van Lieshout's Criterion.
The Cronie and Van Lieshout's Criterion (Cronie and Van Lieshout 2018) find the optimal bandwidth by minimizing the difference between the size of the observation window and the sum of the reciprocal of the estimated kernel density at the events locations. In the network case, the size of the study area is the sum of the length of each line in the network. Thus, it is important to only use the necessary parts of the network.
