vol.mse: MSE approximation for volume predictors

Description

Compute a MSE approximation for volume predictors. The structure of interest is an isotropic 3D random compact set. The sampling device is a uniform random lattice of figures (point patterns, line segments, sections...). The approximation depends only on sampling parameters and on the mean surface (to be provided) of the structure.

Usage

vol.mse(x, S = 1, L = 3)

Arguments

x
a lattice of figures, object of class FigLat-class.
S
the mean surface. Default: 1.
L
an integer, the criterion for stopping summation of the Epstein zeta function. Argument of the function Ezeta. Default: 3.

Value

The MSE approximation as a numeric.
