Calculates the mean detection probability over the range of observation.
1 | calculate.mean.detection.prob(theta = theta, w, detection.function)
|
theta |
The detection function parameters. A single value for halfnormal, or a vector of two values for hazard rate. |
w |
The maximum range of observation. Objects at distance greater than w from the observer are assumed to never be recorded. |
detection.function |
The detection function. Only "halfnormal" and "hazard" (hazard rate) are supported at present. |
The mean detection probability over the distance range [0,w].
