FhatR Documentation

F nearest neighbour distribution function

Description

Calculates an estimate of the F nearest neighbour distribution function

Usage

Fhat(pts1,pts2,s)

Arguments

pts1

A points data set

pts2

A points data set

s

A vector of distances at which to evaluate Fhat

Details

The function Fhat(pts1,pts2,s) is defined as the proportion of members of a point set pts2 for which the distance to the nearest member of another points set pts1 is less than or equal to s.

Value

A vector of the same length as s, containing the value of Fhat at the distances in s.
