The number of secondary sample points generated to adjust the location of the primary sample points
Alias: none
Argument(s): INTEGER
Default: 10000
In general, the variable with the most influence on the quality of the final sample set is num_trials
, which determines how well the Voronoi subregions are sampled.
Generally, num_trials
should be "large", certainly much bigger than the number of sample points being requested; a reasonable value might be 10,000, but values of 100,000 or 1 million are not unusual.
