PGA: Principal geodesic analysis

Description

This function performs principal geodesic analysis.

Usage

PGA(data, col1 = "blue", col2 = "red")

Arguments

data

matrix or data frame consisting of spatial locations with two columns. Each row represents longitude and latitude (denoted by degrees.

col1

color of data. The default is blue.

col2

color of the principal geodesic line. The default is red

Value

plot and a list consisting of

line

spatial locations (longitude and latitude by degrees) of points in the principal geodesic line.

Details

This function performs principal geodesic analysis.

#### example 1: noisy half-great circle data
circle <- GenerateCircle(c(150, 60), radius = pi/2)
half.circle <- circle[circle[, 1] < 0, , drop = FALSE]
sigma <- 2
half.circle <- half.circle + sigma * rnorm(nrow(half.circle))
PGA(half.circle)

#### example 2: noisy S-shaped data 
#### The data consists of two parts: x ~ Uniform[0, 20], y = sqrt(20 * x - x^2) + N(0, sigma^2), 
#### x ~ Uniform[-20, 0], y = -sqrt(-20 * x - x^2) + N(0, sigma^2).
