Alternative K-functions for stationary point processes
Koňasová, Kateřina ; Dvořák, Jiří (advisor) ; Prokešová, Michaela (referee)
The main theme of this thesis is the theory of stationary point processes, in particular the directional K-function. In the first chapter we explain the essentials of planar point process theory including the classical definition of K-function and its estimator. The second chapter introduces two types of the directional K-function: cylindrical K-function whose structural element is a cylinder and directional K-function using double spherical cones. The third chapter presents the comparison of directional K-function and its estimator on an anisotropic version of Thomas process. We also illustrate the major contribution of directional K-function in orientation analysis of point patterns. We introduce a heuristic method for detecting anisotropies in clustered or regular data. 1
Stochastic reconstruction of random point patterns
Koňasová, Kateřina ; Dvořák, Jiří (advisor) ; Prokešová, Michaela (referee)
Point procesess serve as stochastic models for locations of objects that are ran- domly placed in space, e.g. the locations of trees of a given species in a forest stand, earthquake epicenters or defect positions in industrial materials. Stochas- tic reconstruction is an algorithmic procedure providing independent replicates of point process data which may be used for various purposes, e.g. testing sta- tistical hypothesis. The main advantage of this technique is that we do not need to specify any theoretical model for the observed data, only the estimates of se- lected summary characteristics are employed. Main aim of this work is to discuss the possibility of extension of the stochastic reconstruction algorithm for inho- mogeneous point patterns. 1
