Description

supresid takes a space-time point pattern and conditional intensity model and calculates a set of superposed residuals for further analysis.

Usage

1
supresid(X, cifunction, theta = NULL, k = NULL, lambda = NULL)

Arguments

X

A “stpp” object.

cifunction

A function returning the value of the conditional intensity at all points in X. The function should take arguments X and an optional vector of parameters theta.

theta

Optional: A vector of parameters to be passed to cifunction.

k

The superposition rate.

lambda

Optional: A vector of conditional intensities at each point in X.

Details

Superposed residuals is a type of transformation based residuals for space-time point processes (see Bremaud (1981)) which consists of superimposing a point process with rate k - lambda_hat onto the observed point process. k should be the maximum conditional intensity over the entire space-time window. If the model for the conditional intensity is correct, the residuals should be homogeneous Poisson with rate k. Any patterns or inter-point interaction in the residuals indicates a lack of fit of the model. To test for homogeneity, a commonly used tool is Ripley's K-function, a version of which can be found in the spatstat package.

The conditional intensity function, cifunction, should take X as the first argument, and an optional theta as the second argument, and return a vector of conditional intensity estimates with length equal to the number of points in X, i.e. the length of X$x. cifunction is required, while lambda is optional. lambda eliminates the need for supresid to calculate the conditional intensity at each observed point in X.

If k is not specified, the default is the maximum lambda_hat estimated at the points.

Value

Outputs an object of class “supresid”, which is a list of

X

An object of class “stpp”.

k

The superposition rate.

residuals

A data frame consisting of the x, y, and t coordinates of the superposed residuals.

super

A data frame consisting of the x, y, and t coordinates of the superposed points.
