Riassunto

Written by a prominent statistician and author, the first edition of this bestseller broke new ground in the then emerging subject of spatial statistics with its coverage of spatial point patterns. Retaining all the material from the second edition and adding substantial new material, Statistical Analysis of Spatial and Spatio-Temporal Point Patterns, Third Edition presents models and statistical methods for analyzing spatially referenced point process data.

Reflected in the title, this third edition now covers spatio-temporal point patterns. It explores the methodological developments from the last decade along with diverse applications that use spatio-temporally indexed data. Practical examples illustrate how the methods are applied to analyze spatial data in the life sciences.

This edition also incorporates the use of R through several packages dedicated to the analysis of spatial point process data. Sample R code and data sets are available on the author’s website.

Recensione

"... a valuable addition to the existing literature as it covers a number of topics in point pattern analysis, ranging from the basics of spatial point pattern statistical analysis to more recent developments in the spatio-temporal context. A number of examples are discussed throughout the chapters, which should facilitate the reading for practitioners of applied statistics from various disciplines. Besides this, the fact that data sets and R codes are available online certainly constitutes a nice addition to this application-oriented textbook."
―Mathematical Reviews, January 2015

"... well written, concise, and handy. ... there are remarkable changes in fundamentals [in this edition]. ... All concepts are well illustrated using interesting examples. ... an excellent introduction to point process statistics, in particular for beginners."
―Biometrical Journal, 2014
