THIS README IS FOR THE GRID_MESH/GAUSSIAN DIRECTORY, EACH SUB-DIRECTORY WILL ALSO CONTAIN IT'S OWN README FILE.

THIS DIRECTORY CONTAINS 3 SUB-DIRECTORIES THAT CONTAIN THE DATA AND CODE FOR IMPLEMENTING THE SIMULATION STUDIES, THE OUTPUTS FROM THE SIMULATION STUDIES AND THE ANALYSIS OF THE SIMULATION STUDY OUTPUTS, RESPECTIVELY.

- GAUSSIAN_CODE: this contains the simulated covariate data (GridMeshSGSSCov.rda), mesh (MeshesRegPolSG.rda) and R scripts for the implementation of the traditional (GridMeshOptimTradSG_final.R) and SBC (GridMeshOptimSG_final.R) simulation studies and these also contain the code to generate the covariates and meshes. It also contains some plots for the meshes used in the simulation studies.

- GAUSSIAN_OUTPUT: this contains the outputs from the two simulation studies, with the final (combined) outputs labelled GridMeshSGTradSS.rda or GridMeshSGSBCSS.rda.

- GAUSSIAN_ANALYSIS: this contains R scripts which produce tables and plots for the outputs from the two simulation studies and 3 R markdowns that implement these scripts and print a few of the resultant tables and plots. One Rmd is for the traditional simulation study, one for the parameter results of the SBC simulation study and the final for the Gaussian field results of the SBC simulation study.
