PenttinenPointProcess

PenttinenPointProcess[μ,γ,rp,d]

represents a Penttinen point process with constant intensity μ, interaction parameter γ and interaction radius rp in .

Details

  • PenttinenPointProcess is also known as pairwise area interaction process.
  • PenttinenPointProcess models point configurations where points have a pairwise repulsion that is log-linear in the measure of the overlap between balls around the points of radius rp, which are otherwise uniformly distributed.
  • The Penttinen model is typically used when the process interaction depends on the amount of shared resources within radius rp, such as plants, trees and nests of animals.
  • The Penttinen point process can be defined as a GibbsPointProcess in terms of its intensity μ and the pair potential ϕ or pair interaction h, which are both parametrized by γ and rp as follows:
  • pair potential
    pair interaction
  • Here is the measure of overlapping balls:
  • overlapping area in
    overlapping volume in
    1-r TemplateBox[{{{d, /, 2}, +, 1}}, Gamma] TemplateBox[{{1, /, 2}, {{(, {1, -, d}, )}, /, 2}, {3, /, 2}, {{(, {r, ^, 2}, )}, /, {(, {4, , {{r, _, p}, ^, 2}}, )}}}, Hypergeometric2F1]/(sqrt(pi) r_p TemplateBox[{{{(, {d, +, 1}, )}, /, 2}}, Gamma])overlapping measure in
  • A point configuration from a Penttinen point process in an observation region reg has density function proportional to mu^n product_(i!=j)h(TemplateBox[{{{p, _, i}, -, {p, _, j}}}, Norm]), with respect to PoissonPointProcess[1,d].
  • The Papangelou conditional density for adding a point to a point configuration is mu product_ih(TemplateBox[{{{p, _, i}, -, q}}, Norm]).
  • PenttinenPointProcess allows μ, γ and rp to be positive numbers such that , and d to be any positive integer.
  • PenttinenPointProcess simplifies to PoissonPointProcess when . Smaller values of gamma inhibit points within r_(p).
  • Possible Method settings in RandomPointConfiguration for StraussPointProcess are:
  • "MCMC"Markov chain Monte Carlo birth and death
    "Exact"coupling from the past
  • Possible PointProcessEstimator settings in EstimatedPointProcess for PenttinenPointProcess are:
  • Automaticautomatically choose the parameter estimator
    "MaximumPseudoLikelihood"maximize the pseudo-likelihood
  • PenttinenPointProcess can be used with such functions as RipleyK and RandomPointConfiguration.
