okcv: Cross validation, n-fold for ordinary kriging (OK)

Description

This function is a cross validation function for ordinary kriging.

Usage

okcv(
  longlat,
  trainy,
  cv.fold = 10,
  nmax = 12,
  transformation = "none",
  delta = 1,
  vgm.args = ("Sph"),
  anis = c(0, 1),
  alpha = 0,
  block = 0,
  predacc = "VEcv",
  ...
)

Arguments

longlat

a dataframe contains longitude and latitude of point samples.

trainy

a vector of response, must have length equal to the number of rows in longlat.

cv.fold

integer; number of folds in the cross-validation. if > 1, then apply n-fold cross validation; the default is 10, i.e., 10-fold cross validation that is recommended.

nmax

for local kriging: the number of nearest observations that should be used for a kriging prediction or simulation, where nearest is defined in terms of the space of the spatial locations. By default, 12 observations are used.

transformation

transform the response variable to normalise the data; can be "sqrt" for square root, "arcsine" for arcsine, "log" or "none" for non transformation. By default, "none" is used.

delta

numeric; to avoid log(0) in the log transformation.

vgm.args

arguments for vgm, e.g. variogram model of response variable and anisotropy parameters. see notes vgm in gstat for details. By default, "Sph" is used.

anis

anisotropy parameters: see notes vgm in gstat for details.

alpha

direction in plane (x,y). see variogram in gstat for details.

block

block size. see krige in gstat for details.

predacc

can be either "VEcv" for vecv or "ALL" for all measures in function pred.acc.

...

other arguments passed on to gstat.

Value

A list with the following components: me, rme, mae, rmae, mse, rmse, rrmse, vecv and e1; or vecv only
