k12hat | R Documentation |
Calculates an estimate of the bivariate K-function
k12hat(pts1,pts2,poly,s)
pts1 , pts2 |
Two points data sets |
poly |
A polygon containing the points |
s |
A vector of distances at which to estimate the K12 function |
The bivariate K function is defined as the expected number of points of pattern 1 within a distance s of an arbitrary point of pattern 2, divided by the overall density of the points in pattern 1. To estimate this function, the approximately unbiased estimator given by Lotwick and Silverman (1982) is used.
A vector like s
containing the value of K12hat at the points in s
