polygon.adapt {voronoi}

Integral over a convex polygon
Package: 
voronoi
Version: 
1.1

Description

Performs Riemann-type integration of a function over a convex polygon.

Usage

polygon.adapt(poly, f, divisions=10, antideriv.x=NULL, antideriv.y=NULL,
   checkPoly=TRUE)

Arguments

poly
A 2-column matrix containing the x-y coordinates of the vertices, ordered as they appear on the convex hull.
f
A function taking two numerical arguments that is to be integrated over the specified polygon. This function should return a numerical vector of the same length as the inputs.
divisions
A scalar which controls the number of subintervals over which the Riemann sum is computed. Higher values produce more precise integral calculations.
antideriv.x
A function taking two arguments that is the antiderivative of f with respect to x.
antideriv.y
A function taking two arguments that is the antiderivative of f with respect to y.
checkPoly
Whether to check that the polynomial is convex and its points are ordered clockwise or counter-clockwise.

Details

Specification of one or both of the antiderivatives yields more efficient performance by reducing the dimension in which integration is performed.

Values

The scalar result of the integration.

Examples

#=====> Rectangle <=====#
pts <- rbind(c(0,2), c(0,4), c(4,4), c(4,2), c(0,2))
plot(pts, type="l")
f   <- function(x, y) x + y^3
polygon.adapt(poly = pts, f = f)
 
#=====> Random Convex Polygon <=====#
pts <- cbind(runif(5), runif(5))
pts <- pts[chull(pts),]
plot(pts, type="n")
polygon(pts)
antideriv.x <- function(x, y) x^2/2 + x*y^3
antideriv.y <- function(x, y) x*y + y^4/4
polygon.adapt(poly = pts, f = f, divisions=100,
   antideriv.x = antideriv.x, antideriv.y = antideriv.y)
