Inhomogeneous Multitype K Dot Function
For a multitype point pattern, estimate the inhomogeneous version of the dot K function, which counts the expected number of points of any type within a given distance of a point of type i, adjusted for spatially varying intensity.

Briefly, given a multitype point process, consider the points without their types, and suppose this unmarked point process has intensity function lambda(u) at spatial locations u. Suppose we place a mass of 1/lambda(z) at each point z of the process. Then the expected total mass per unit area is 1. The inhomogeneous “dot-type” K function K[i.]inhom(r) equals the expected total mass within a radius r of a point of the process of type i, discounting this point itself.
If the process of type i points were independent of the points of other types, then K[i.]inhom(r) would equal pi * r^2. Deviations between the empirical Ki. curve and the theoretical curve pi * r^2 suggest dependence between the points of types i and j for j != i.
The argument X must be a point pattern (object of class
"ppp") or any data that are acceptable to as.ppp.
It must be a marked point pattern, and the mark vector
X$marks must be a factor.
The argument i will be interpreted as a
level of the factor X$marks. (Warning: this means that
an integer value i=3 will be interpreted as the number 3,
not the 3rd smallest level).
If i is missing, it defaults to the first
level of the marks factor, i = levels(X$marks)[1].
The argument lambdaI supplies the values
of the intensity of the sub-process of points of type i.
It may be either
(object of class "im") which
gives the values of the type i intensity
at all locations in the window containing X;
containing the values of the
type i intensity evaluated only
at the data points of type i. The length of this vector
must equal the number of type i points in X.
of the form function(x,y)
which can be evaluated to give values of the intensity at
any locations.
(object of class "ppm", "kppm" or "dppm")
whose fitted trend can be used as the fitted intensity.
(If update=TRUE the model will first be refitted to the
data X before the trend is computed.)
if lambdaI is omitted then it will be estimated
using a leave-one-out kernel smoother.
If lambdaI is omitted, then it will be estimated using
a ‘leave-one-out’ kernel smoother, as described in Baddeley,
Moller
and Waagepetersen (2000). The estimate of lambdaI for a given
point is computed by removing the point from the
point pattern, applying kernel smoothing to the remaining points using
density.ppp, and evaluating the smoothed intensity
at the point in question. The smoothing kernel bandwidth is controlled
by the arguments sigma and varcov, which are passed to
density.ppp along with any extra arguments.
Similarly the argument lambdadot should contain
estimated values of the intensity of the entire point process.
It may be either a pixel image, a numeric vector of length equal
to the number of points in X, a function, or omitted.
Alternatively if the argument lambdaX is given, then it specifies
the intensity values for all points of X, and the
arguments lambdaI, lambdadot will be ignored.
(The two arguments lambdaI, lambdadot allow the user
to specify two different methods for calculating the intensities of
the two kinds of points, while lambdaX ensures that the same
method is used for both kinds of points.)
For advanced use only, the optional argument lambdaIdot
is a matrix containing estimated
values of the products of these two intensities for each pair of
points, the first point of type i and the second of any type.
The argument r is the vector of values for the
distance r at which Ki.(r) should be evaluated.
The values of r must be increasing nonnegative numbers
and the maximum r value must not exceed the radius of the
largest disc contained in the window.
The argument correction chooses the edge correction
as explained e.g. in Kest.
The pair correlation function can also be applied to the
result of Kcross.inhom; see pcf.
An object of class "fv" (see fv.object).
Essentially a data frame containing numeric columns
r |
the values of the argument r at which the function Ki.(r) has been estimated |
theo |
the theoretical value of Ki.(r) for a marked Poisson process, namely pi * r^2 |
together with a column or columns named
"border", "bord.modif",
"iso" and/or "trans",
according to the selected edge corrections. These columns contain
estimates of the function Ki.(r)
obtained by the edge corrections named.
The argument i is interpreted as
a level of the factor X$marks. It is converted to a character
string if it is not already a character string.
The value i=1 does not
refer to the first level of the factor.
