Testing first-order spherical symmetry of spatial point processes
Institute of Statistical Science, Academia Sinica & International Chinese Statistical Association (2020)This study proposes a Kolmogorov-Smirnov-type test to assess the spherical symmetry of the first-order intensity function of a spatial point process (SPP). Spherical symmetry, which is an important assumption in the well ...

The Euler Number from the Distance Function
International Society for Stereology (2013)We present a new method to obtain the Euler number of a domain based on the tangent counts of concentric spheres in R3 (or circles in R2), with respect to the center O, that sweeps the domain. This method is derived from ...
