number of pixels in a circular window for GRASS r.neighbors function
I am going out on a limb here as I have never uses this function but based on what you wrote you could probably just change function=sum to function=mean. I am assuming (based on what you said) that the function (r.neighbors) imposes the condition first (eg x==1) and then sums the resulting 0s and 1s to get the number equal to 1. If that's the case you can change sum to mean to get the proportion.

Dear list, I have calculated the number of pixels whose value=1 for different radii using the r.neighbors function (method= circular, function=sum). I would like to compute the proportion of cells with this value and for that, I'm trying to figure out the effective number of pixels that are used for each radius. From the documentation <http://grass.osgeo.org/gdp/html_grass64/r.neighbors.html>, above a diameter of d = 9 cells, the result seems to be d^2- 4 * (d-1) cells but I was wondering if someone could confirm this to me? Is this relationship conserved for larger diameter. Thanks for any hint Alexandre P.S.: I already posted this message on the Grass stats list but maybe I wasn't clear enough and as a result didn't get any answer [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
