Linear K Function
Computes an estimate of the linear K function for a point pattern on a linear network.
linearK(X, r=NULL, ..., correction="Ang", ratio=FALSE)
X |
Point pattern on linear network (object of class |
r |
Optional. Numeric vector of values of the function argument r. There is a sensible default. |
... |
Ignored. |
correction |
Geometry correction.
Either |
ratio |
Logical.
If |
This command computes the linear K function from point pattern data on a linear network.
If correction="none"
, the calculations do not include
any correction for the geometry of the linear network. The result is the
network K function as defined by Okabe and Yamada (2001).
If correction="Ang"
, the pair counts are weighted using
Ang's correction (Ang, 2010; Ang et al, 2012).
