R: Poisson Points Distribution

PoissonPoints {VGAM} | R Documentation

## Poisson Points Distribution

### Description

Density for the PoissonPoints distribution.

### Usage

    dpois.points(x, lambda, ostatistic, dimension = 2, log = FALSE)

### Arguments

`x` | vector of quantiles.
`lambda` | the mean density of points.
`ostatistic` | positive values, usually integers.
`dimension` | Either 2 and/or 3.

`log` | Logical; if TRUE, the logarithm is returned.

### Details

See `poisson.points`, the VGAM family function for estimating the parameters, for the formula of the probability density function and other details.

### Value

`dpois.points` gives the density.

### See Also

`poisson.points`, `dpois`, `Maxwell`.

### Examples

    ## Not run:  lambda <- 1; xvec <- seq(0, 2, length = 400)
    plot(xvec, dpois.points(xvec, lambda, ostat = 1, dimension = 2),
         type = "l", las = 1, col = "blue",
         sub = "First order statistic",
         main = paste("PDF of PoissonPoints distribution with lambda = ",
                      lambda, " and on the plane", sep = ""))
    ## End(Not run)
