Non-parametric indices of dependence between components for inhomogeneous multivariate random measures and marked sets

Statistics Theory 2016-08-08 v2 Statistics Theory

Abstract

We propose new summary statistics to quantify the association between the components in coverage-reweighted moment stationary multivariate random sets and measures. They are defined in terms of the coverage-reweighted cumulant densities and extend classic functional statistics for stationary random closed sets. We study the relations between these statistics and evaluate them explicitly for a range of models. Unbiased estimators are given for all statistics and applied to simulated examples.
