Abstract
In this paper, an original authors' approach to classification and
simulation of discretized, nonhomogeneous, spatial random
fields is presented. The classification of the fields is performed
according to the groups of symmetry of the correlation
functions. To solve the simulation problem an effective version is
of the rejection method and conditional probability
distributions are implemented. A superior role in the method
plays a local propagation scheme consisted of growing number
of points covering sequentially the nodes of a regular or
irregular mesh. The results of the simulation of the white noise
and Wiener fields are presented. Estimators of local and global
characteristics of these fields show agreement with theoretical
Wishart (gamma) distributions.
