Kernel Estimate of Intensity on a Linear Network as a Spatial Function
Computes a kernel estimate of the intensity of a point process on a linear network, and returns the intensity estimate as a function of spatial location.
## S3 method for class 'lpp' densityfun(X, sigma, ..., weights=NULL, nsigma=1, verbose=FALSE)
X |
Point pattern on a linear network

Optional numeric vector of weights associated

Logical value indicating whether to print progress reports. |
Kernel smoothing is applied to the points of X
using the diffusion algorithm of McSwiggan et al (2016).
The result is a function on the linear network
(object of class "linfun"
) that can be printed, plotted
and evaluated at any location.
This is a method for the generic function
densityfun
for the class
"lpp"
of point patterns on a linear network.
Function on a linear network (object of class "linfun"
).
If nsigma=1
(the default), the result is a function giving
kernel estimate with bandwidth sigma
.
If nsigma > 1
, the result is a function
with an additional argument k
. If k
is specified,
the function returns the kernel estimate for
bandwidth tau = sigma * sqrt(k/nsigma)
.
If k
is not specified, results are returned
for all k = 1, 2, ..., nsigma
.
The result also has attributes
attr(result, "dt")
giving the
time step Delta t;
attr(result, "dx")
giving the spacing Delta x
between sample points in the numerical algorithm;
attr(result, "sigma")
giving the smoothing bandwidth sigma used
(or the successive bandwidths used at each sampled time step,
if nsigma > 1
).
