RELEASE NOTES spatstat 1.6-4 20 April 2005 OVERVIEW Several `traditional' techniques in spatial statistics have been implemented, by popular request. NEW FUNCTIONS envelope Computes the simulation envelope of a summary statistic (such as the K function) under CSR or under a fitted model quadratcount Counts number of points in each quadrat in a grid pcf.ppp Estimation of pair correlation function by the kernel smoothing method, exactly as recommended in Stoyan & Stoyan 1994 page 285. IMPROVEMENTS/ENHANCEMENTS 1. The pair correlation function (pcf) has become a generic function with methods for "ppp" (point patterns), "fv" (function value tables) and "fasp" (function arrays). 2. There are some internal improvements to the model-fitting infrastructure. COMPATIBILITY pcf(X, ...), where X is a point pattern, now has different arguments (see pcf.ppp) BUGS None. (or at least, none repaired..)
