STK: a Small (Matlab/Octave) Toolbox for Kriging
 STK_RBF_EXPONENTIAL computes the exponential correlation function

 CALL: K = stk_rbf_exponential (H)

    computes the value of the exponential correlation function at distance H:

        K = exp (- sqrt(2) |H|).

    Note that this correlation function is a special of the Matern correlation
    function (NU = 1/2).

 CALL: K = stk_rbf_exponential (H, DIFF)

    computes the derivative of the exponential correlation function with
    respect the H if DIFF is equal to 1, and simply returns the value of the
    exponential correlation function if DIFF <= 0  (in which case it is
    equivalent to K = stk_rbf_exponential (H)).

 ADMISSIBILITY

    The exponential correlation is a valid correlation function for all
    dimensions.

 REMARK

    The constant sqrt (2) is consistent with the definition of the Matern
    correlation function in STK.  Other references may use different constants.
