Solves the coupled reaction-diffusion system $$\partial_t A = \eta \nabla^2 A - \omega A + \theta \rho,$$ $$\partial_t \rho = \nabla \cdot (D \nabla \rho - 2 \rho \nabla \log A) - \rho A + \gamma,$$ on a cosine-corrected Toronto grid seeded by the observed incident histogram. Localised attractiveness spikes emerge whenever \((\eta, \omega, \theta, D, \gamma)\) place the system in the instability regime (D'Orsogna & Perc 2015, sec. 3.2).

Usage

morie_tps_sdb_reaction_diffusion(
  category = "Assault",
  sample_rows = 30000L,
  eta = 0.05,
  omega = 0.3,
  theta = 1.5,
  D = 0.1,
  gamma = 0.05,
  n_steps = 800L,
  dt = 0.04,
  nx = 90L,
  ny = 60L,
  save_fig = TRUE
)

Arguments

category

TPS category name (default "Assault").

sample_rows

Maximum number of incident rows to load (NULL for all).

eta, omega, theta, D, gamma

PDE coefficients.

n_steps

Number of forward-Euler integration steps.

dt

Integration step size.

nx, ny

Grid resolution.

save_fig

Whether to write a 1x3 PNG triptych (seed / A(x,t) / rho(x,t)) to the manifest figure directory.

Value

A morie_rich_result list with the steady-state spike count, mean field values, DBSCAN comparison, and the integration parameters.

Details

Steady-state spike count is compared against a DBSCAN cluster count on the raw incidents (delegated to morie_tps_dbscan_clusters when available).
