Overview

About

Maintained by Monsuru AdepejuCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Issues ↗

Generates artificial point patterns marked by their spatial and temporal signatures. The resulting point cloud may exhibit inherent interactions between both signatures. The simulation integrates microsimulation (Holm, E., (2017)doi:10.1002/9781118786352.wbieg0320) and agent-based models (Bonabeau, E., (2002)doi:10.1073/pnas.082080899), beginning with the configuration of movement characteristics for the specified agents (referred to as 'walkers') and their interactions within the simulation environment. These interactions (Quaglietta, L. and Porto, M., (2019)doi:10.1186/s40462-019-0154-8) result in specific spatiotemporal patterns that can be visualized, analyzed, and used for various analytical purposes. Given the growing scarcity of detailed spatiotemporal data across many domains, this package provides an alternative data source for applications in social and life sciences.

Changes in 1.3.4

New changes

Modify model description to better capture the essence of the package
Increasing default value for 'size' arguments in make_grids function to facilitate quicker computation.

From NEWS.md in the release

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("stppSim", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("MAnalytics/stppSim")

Development version from MAnalytics/stppSim. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-stppsim

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled. We list this channel from recorded r2u download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-stppSim

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-stppSim

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed). We list this channel from recorded autoCRAN download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.
