generate_poisson_counts

A <code>data.table</code> with at least the column <code>mu</code>, 
corresponding to the parameter <code>lambda</code> in 
<code><a rd-options="stats" href="/link/rpois?package=scanstatistics&version=0.1.0&to=stats" data-mini-rdoc="stats::rpois">rpois</a></code>.

table

This function randomly generates counts from a Poisson distribution according 
to the parameters on each row of the input <code>data.table</code>, and adds the 
counts to a new column <code>count</code>.

internal

Detection of anomalous space-time clusters using the scan
statistics methodology. Focuses on prospective surveillance of data streams,
scanning for clusters with ongoing anomalies. Hypothesis testing is made
possible by the generation of Monte Carlo p-values.
