##### K Function or Pair Correlation Function of Gibbs Point Process model

Returns the theoretical $K$ function or the pair correlation function of a fitted Gibbs point process model.

Keywords
models, spatial
##### Usage
## S3 method for class 'ppm':
Kmodel(model, \dots)   ## S3 method for class 'ppm':
pcfmodel(model, \dots)
##### Arguments
model
A fitted Poisson or Gibbs point process model (object of class "ppm") typically obtained from the model-fitting algorithm ppm.
...
Ignored.
##### Details

This function computes an approximation to the $K$ function or the pair correlation function of a Gibbs point process. The functions Kmodel and pcfmodel are generic. The functions documented here are the methods for the class "ppm". The approximation is only available for stationary pairwise-interaction models. It uses the second order Poisson-saddlepoint approximation (Baddeley and Nair, 2012b) which is a combination of the Poisson-Boltzmann-Emden and Percus-Yevick approximations.

The return value is a function in the Rlanguage, which takes one argument r. Evaluation of this function, on a numeric vector r, yields values of the desired $K$ function or pair correlation function at these distance values.

##### Value

• A function in the Rlanguage, which takes one argument r.
