Globally intensity‐reweighted estimators for <i>K</i> ‐ and pair correlation functions
نویسندگان
چکیده
We introduce new estimators of the inhomogeneous K-function and pair correlation function a spatial point process as well cross bivariate under assumption second-order intensity-reweighted stationarity. These rely on ‘global’ normalisation factor which depends an aggregation intensity function, while existing depend ‘locally’ at individual observed points. The advantages our global over local are demonstrated by theoretical considerations simulation study.

Estimation Variances for Estimators of Product Densities and Pair Correlation Functions of Planar Point Processes
Approximations of the estimation variances of kernel estimators of the pair correlation function and the product density of a planar Poisson process are given. Furthermore, a heuristic approximation of the estimation variance of an estimator of the pair correlation function of a "general" planar point process is suggested. All formulae have been tested by simulation experiments.
متن کاملPerformance of internal Covariance Estimators for Cosmic Shear Correlation Functions
Data re-sampling methods such as the delete-one jackknife are a common tool for estimating the covariance of large scale structure probes. In this paper we investigate the concepts of internal covariance estimation in the context of cosmic shear two-point statistics. We demonstrate how to use log-normal simulations of the convergence field and the corresponding shear field to carry out realisti...
متن کاملOptical microscopy measurement of pair correlation functions.
We studied the pair correlation function g(r) of silica particles with a fluorescent core and a nonfluorescent shell which were confined between two glass plates by optical video microscopy. To investigate the possible role of optical artifacts due to overlapping particle images, we compared experiments, where, first, the whole particle (white image) and then, only the fluorescent core (fluores...
متن کاملn the realizability of pair correlation functions
ceton, NJ The pair correlation function g2ðrÞ provides a basic geometric descriptor for man systems. It must obey two necessary conditions: (i) non-negativity for all distances non-negativity of its associated structure factor SðkÞ for all k. Here we utilize an stochastic construction algorithm for particle configurations to establish conditions (i) and (ii) are also sufficient, i.e., g2ðrÞ is ...
متن کاملUnbiased estimators for correlation measurements.
Higher order correlation measurements involve multiple event averages which must run over unequal events to avoid statistical bias. We derive correction formulas for small event samples, where the bias is largest, and utilize the results to achieve savings in CPU time consumption for the star integral. Results from a simple model of correlations illustrate the utility and importance of these co...
