The function as.ppm
extracts
the fitted point process model (of class "ppm"
)
from a suitable object.
The function as.ppm
is generic, with methods for the classes
"ppm"
, "profilepl"
, "kppm"
and "dppm"
,
and possibly for other classes.
For the class "profilepl"
of models fitted by maximum profile
pseudolikelihood, the method as.ppm.profilepl
extracts the
fitted point process model (with the optimal values of the
irregular parameters).
For the class "kppm"
of models fitted by minimum contrast (or Palm or composite likelihood)
using Waagepetersen's two-step estimation procedure
(see kppm
), the method as.ppm.kppm
extracts the Poisson point process model that is fitted in the
first stage of the procedure.
The behaviour for the class "dppm"
is analogous to the "kppm"
case above.
