Polygon Object

Source: R/polygon-module.R
Polygon.Rd

2D polygon for geometric operations and spatial analysis.

Arguments

x

Numeric vector of x coordinates. Required unless .xptr is given.

y

Numeric vector of y coordinates. Required unless .xptr is given.

.xptr

Not for direct use. External pointer to the underlying C++ Polygon object; set internally when a method returns a new Polygon.

Value

A Polygon object with methods for geometry operations.

Details

Uses Rcpp Modules for high-performance access to Praat's Polygon object.

Common uses

  • Vowel space boundaries

  • Formant space visualization

  • Acoustic space analysis

  • Convex hull computation

Examples

# Create polygon from formant data
poly <- Polygon(x = c(730, 1090, 2440), y = c(1090, 1220, 2440))

# Geometry queries
perimeter <- poly$get_perimeter()
n_points <- poly$n_points()

# Optimize path (traveling salesman)
poly$optimize_salesperson(iterations = 100)

# Export
df <- as.data.frame(poly)
