Spatio-temporal hot-spots cluster point process model

Description

Generate a realisation of the hot-spots cluster process in a region S x T.

Usage

sthpcpp(lambp, r, mu, s.region, t.region)

Arguments

s.region	Two-column matrix specifying polygonal region containing all data locations.If s.region is missing, the unit square is considered.
t.region	Vector containing the minimum and maximum values of the time interval. If t.region is missing, the interval [0,1] is considered.
lambp	Intensity of the Poisson process of cluster centres. A single positive number, a function, or a pixel image.
r	Radius parameter of the clusters.
mu	Average number of daughter per parent (a single positive number) or reference intensity for the cluster points (a function or a pixel image).

Details

This function generates a realisation of spatio-temporal cluster process, which can be considered as generalisation of the classical Matern cluster process, inside the spatio-temporal window.

Consider a Poisson point process in the plane with intensity λ_{p} as cluster centres for all times 'parent', as well as a infinite cylinder of radius R around of each Poisson point, orthogonal to the plane. The scatter uniformly in all cylinders of all points which are of the form (x,y,z), the number of points in each cluster being random with a Poisson (μ) distribution. The resulting point pattern is a spatio-temporal cluster point process with t=z. This point process has intensity λ_{p} x μ.

Value

The simulated spatio-temporal point pattern.
