PalmTypeA: Non-Parametric Estimate of The Palm Intensity of Type A Model

Description

Calculate the non-parametric Palm intensity function of Type A Model estimated directly from a set of point pattern data.

Usage

PalmTypeA(offspring, pa, delta, ty, x2, plot=TRUE)

Arguments

offspring

the list of coordinates $(x,y)$ of offspring points.

pa

the parameters $(mu_i, nu_i, a_i, sigma_{1,i}, sigma_{2,i})$, $i=1,2,...,I

delta

a width for the non-parametric Palm intensity function.

ty

the variable $Ty$ for the standardized coordinates of points in the rectangular region $[0,1]*[0,Ty]$ without loss of generality except for the scaling.

x2

upper limit value in place of $\infty$.

plot

logical. If TRUE (default) the non-parametric estimate and the curves of the true and MPLE (the maximum Palm likelihood estimator) parameters are shown.

Examples

  ## simulation
  seeds <- c(822, 913, 905)
  pa1 <- c(50, 30, 0.3, 0.005, 0.1)
  ty <- 1
  z <- SimulateTypeA(seeds, pa1, ty, 100, 150)

  ## estimation
  delta <- 0.001
  x2 <- 0.3
  pa2 <- c(0.5639245e+02, 0.2356894e+02, 0.3549922, 0.5203741e-02, 0.1070969)
  pa <- matrix(c(pa1,pa2), 2, 5, byrow=TRUE)
