simTargetCov

This package transforms or simulates data with a target empirical covariance matrix supplied by the user. The details to obtain such data can be found in Christidis, Van Aelst and Zamar (2019) (https://arxiv.org/abs/1812.05678).


Installation

You can install the stable version on R CRAN.

install.packages("simTargetCov", dependencies = TRUE)

You can install the development version from GitHub.

library(devtools)
devtools::install_github("AnthonyChristidis/simTargetCov")

Usage

# Function to create target covariance matrix with kernel set to r
target_cor <- function(r, p){
 Gamma <- diag(p)
 for(i in 1:(p-1)){
   for(j in (i+1):p){
     Gamma[i,j] <- Gamma[j,i] <- r^(abs(i-j))
   }
 }
 return(Gamma)
}

# Transformation of data to target empirical covariance
dat.target.cov <- simTargetCov(X = MASS::mvrnorm(30, mu = rep(0,6),
                               Sigma = target_cor(0.5,6)),
                               target = target_cor(0.5,6))
round(cov(dat.target.cov), 2)

# Simulation of data with target empirical covariance
sim.target.cov <- simTargetCov(n = 30, p = 6, target = target_cor(0.5,6))
round(cov(sim.target.cov), 2)
