Multitype K Function (Cross-type) for Linear Point Pattern
For a multitype point pattern on a linear network, estimate the multitype K function which counts the expected number of points of type j within a given distance of a point of type i.

Kij(r) will be computed.

numeric vector. The values of the argument r at which the K-function Kij(r) should be evaluated. There is a sensible default. First-time users are strongly advised not to specify this argument. See below for important conditions on r. |

This is a counterpart of the function Kcross
for a point pattern on a linear network (object of class "lpp"
).
The arguments i
and j
will be interpreted as
levels of the factor marks(X)
.
If i
and j
are missing, they default to the first
and second level of the marks factor, respectively.
The argument r
is the vector of values for the
distance r at which Kij(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.
An object of class "fv"
(see fv.object
).
The arguments i
and j
are interpreted as
levels of the factor marks(X)
. Beware of the usual
trap with factors: numerical values are not
interpreted in the same way as character values.
