LATIN_EDGE_DATASET\ Generate Latin Edge Square Datasets {#latin_edge_dataset-generate-latin-edge-square-datasets align=”center”} ===================================


LATIN_EDGE_DATASET is a C++ program which creates a Latin Edge Square dataset.

A Latin square, in M dimensional space, with N points, can be thought of as being constructed by dividing each of the M coordinate dimensions into N equal intervals. The I-th coordinates of the N subsquares are defined by assigning each possible value exactly once to one subsquare. Such a set is called a Latin Square.

Now suppose that, in each spatial coordinate, we label successive squares by the values 0, 1/N-1, 2/N-1, …, (N-2)/(N-1), 1. Then each element of our Latin Edge dataset is a vector of N such values, and our dataset contains N such vectors.
