Cubature scheme for spatio-temporal Poisson point processes estimation

Abstract

This work presents the cubature scheme for the fitting of spatio-temporal Poisson point processes. The methodology is implemented in the R Core Team (2024) package stopp (D'Angelo and Adelfio, 2023), published on the Comprehensive R Archive Network (CRAN) and available from https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=stopp. Since the number of dummy points should be sufficient for an accurate estimate of the likelihood, numerical experiments are currently under development to give guidelines on this aspect.
