SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES
o ppm, kppm, lppm
NEW SYNTAX FOR POINT PROCESS MODELS
The model-fitting functions 'ppm', 'kppm' and 'lppm' now accept
a syntax similar to 'lm' or 'glm', for example ppm(X ~ Z),
but still accept the older syntax ppm(X, ~Z).
To support both kinds of syntax, the functions 'ppm' and 'kppm'
are now generic, with methods for the classes 'formula', 'ppp' and 'quad'.
The 'formula' method handles a syntax like ppm(X ~ Z) while the
'ppp' method handles the old syntax ppm(X, ~Z).
Similarly 'lppm' is generic with methods for 'formula' and 'lpp'.
o ppm, kppm, lppm
Covariates appearing in the model formula can be objects
which exist in the R session, instead of always having to be
elements of the list `covariates'.
o ppm.formula, kppm.formula, lppm.formula
Formulae involving polynom() are now expanded, symbolically,
so that polynom(x, 3) becomes x + I(x^2) + I(x^3)
and polynom(x,y,2) becomes x + y + I(x^2) + I(x*y) + I(y^2).
This neatens the model output, and also makes it possible
for anova() and step() to add or delete single terms in the polynomial.
o predict.ppm
New argument 'interval' allows confidence intervals or prediction intervals
to be calculated.
o predict.ppm
New argument 'total' allows for prediction of the total number of points
in a specified region.
o plot.ppp, plot.lpp
For marked point patterns, a legend is automatically added
to the plot, by default. Arguments have changed: new arguments
include parameters of the legend, and an optional symbol map.
Result has changed: it is now an object of class 'symbolmap'.
o plot.ppp, plot.lpp
Interpretation of the parameters 'markscale' and 'maxsize'
has changed. The size of a circle in the plot is now defined
as the circle's diameter instead of its radius. (Size of
a square is measured, as before, by its side length).
o parres
Now handles the case where the fitted model is not separable
but its restriction to the given 'subregion' is separable.
o envelope
Now issues a warning if the usage of envelope() appears to be `invalid'
in the sense that the simulated patterns and the data pattern
have not been treated equally.
o Kinhom, Finhom, Ginhom, Jinhom
New argument 'update'.
If 'lambda' is a fitted model (class ppm or kppm) and update=TRUE,
the model is re-fitted to the data pattern, before the intensities
are computed.
o rDiggleGratton, rDGS, rHardcore, rStrauss, rStraussHard
By default the point pattern is now generated on
a larger window, and trimmed to the original window.
New argument expand=TRUE.
o MultiStrauss, MultiHard, MultiStraussHard
The syntax of these functions has changed.
The new code should still accept the old syntax.
o rhohat
rhohat.ppp and rhohat.quad have new argument 'baseline'
o ippm
Algorithm improved. Argument syntax changed.
o default.dummy, quadscheme
Dummy points can now be generated by a quasirandom sequence.
o plot.owin
The window can now be filled with one of 8 different textures.
Arguments changed.
o ppm, kppm
Covariates in the model can now be tessellations.
o [.im
New argument 'tight' allows the resulting image to be trimmed
to the smallest possible rectangle.
o [.psp, rlinegrid, rpoisline
These functions now handle binary mask windows.
o rotate
The user can specify the centre of rotation.
o rescale
rescale() and all its methods now have argument 'unitname'
which can be used to change the name of the unit of length.
o anova.ppm
Output format has been improved.
Number of columns of result has changed.
o print.ppp, print.summary.ppp, print.owin, print.summary.owin,
print.im, print.summary.im, print.fv, print.msr, print.profilepl
These functions now avoid over-running the text margin
(i.e. they respect options('width') where possible).
o layerplotargs<-
Now handles any spatial object, converting it to a 'layered' object.
o effectfun
Improved display in case se.fit=TRUE.
o scaletointerval
New argument 'xrange'
o contour.im
New argument 'show.all'.
Default value of 'axes' changed to FALSE.
o identify.ppp
Now handles multivariate marks.
o plot.listof
Improved layout.
New arguments 'hsep', 'vsep'.
Argument 'mar.panel' may have length 1, 2 or 4.
o plot.splitppp
This function is no longer identical to plot.listof.
Instead it is a much simpler function which just
calls plot.listof with equal.scales=TRUE.
o anova.ppm
Output is neater.
o plot.layered
New argument 'do.plot'
o plot.psp
New argument 'do.plot'
o as.psp.owin
New argument 'window'
o plot.im, contour.im, textureplot
New argument 'clipwin'
o plot.ppp
New argument 'clipwin'
o plot.msr
New argument 'how' allows density to be plotted as image and/or contour
o diagnose.ppm, plot.diagppm
More options for 'plot.neg'
o plot.leverage.ppm, plot.influence.ppm, plot.msr
Argument 'clipwin' can now be used to restrict the display
to a subset of the full data.
o [.hyperframe, [<-.hyperframe, $.hyperframe, $<-.hyperframe
These functions are now documented.
o leverage.ppm, influence.ppm, dfbetas.ppm
Resulting objects are now smaller (in memory size).
o print.ppm
Now indicates whether the irregular parameters 'covfunargs'
were optimised (by profilepl or ippm) or whether they were simply
provided by the user.
o plot.ppp
A point pattern with numerical marks can now be plotted as
filled dots with colours determined by the marks,
by setting pch=21 and bg=<colourmap>
o colourmap
Now handles dates and date-time values (of class 'Date' or 'POSIXt').
o plot.ppp, print.ppp, summary.ppp
Improved handling of dates and date-time values
(of class 'Date' or 'POSIXt') in the marks of a point pattern.
o cut.im
Now refuses to handle images whose pixel values are
factor, logical or character.
o centroid.owin
New argument 'as.ppp'
o superimpose
Improved default names for columns of marks.
o Softcore()
Improved printout.
o kppm, lgcp.estpcf, lgcp.estK
Adjusted to new structure of RandomFields package.
No change in syntax.
o data(murchison)
This dataset now belongs to class 'listof' so that it can be
plotted directly.
o data(clmfires)
The format of the covariate data has changed.
The objects 'clmcov100' and 'clmcov200' are now
elements of a list 'clmfires.extra'.
o bounding.box
This function is now Deprecated; it has been replaced
by the generic boundingbox().
o as.psp.owin
This function is now Deprecated; it has been replaced
and extended by the function edges().
o plot.kstest
Changed defaults so that the two curves are distinguishable.
o with.fv
Improved mathematical labels.
BUG FIXES
o intensity.quadratcount
Values were incorrect for a rectangular tessellation
(the matrix of intensities was transposed).
Fixed.
o rmh, simulate.ppm
Simulation of the Strauss-hard core model (StraussHard) was incorrect
(intensity of the simulated process was about 15% too low).

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES
o Package Dependencies
spatstat now "Imports" (rather than "Depends" on)
the libraries mgcv, deldir, abind, tensor, polyclip.
This means that these libraries are not accessible to the user
unless the user explicitly loads them by typing 'library(mgcv)' and so on.
o owin, as.owin
Polygon data are no longer subjected to strict checks on
geometrical validity (self-crossing points, overlaps etc.)
Instead, polygon geometry is automatically repaired.
o ppm
The default quadrature scheme for a point pattern
has been improved (in the case of a non-rectangular window)
to remove a possible source of bias.
o Performance
various parts of spatstat now run slightly faster.
o scan.test
Now handles multiple values of circle radius 'r'.
o plot.scan.test, as.im.scan.test
These functions can now give the optimal value of circle radius 'r'.
o pcfcross, pcfdot
Algorithms have been reimplemented using a single-pass kernel smoother
and now run much faster. Bandwidth selection rule improved.
o plot.listof, plot.splitppp
Default behaviour has changed: panels are now plotted on different scales.
o plot.listof, plot.splitppp
When 'equal.scales=TRUE' the panels are plotted on exactly equal scales
and are exactly aligned (under certain conditions).
o ppp, marks.ppp, marks<-.ppp
New argument 'drop' determines whether a data frame with a single column
will be converted to a vector.
o simulate.ppm, rmh.ppm, rmhmodel.ppm

of a fitted model, before it is simulated.
o logLik.ppm
New argument 'new.coef' allows the user to evaluate the
loglikelihood for a different value of the parameter.
o clusterset
The argument 'result' has been renamed 'what'.
It is now possible to give multiple values to 'what'
so that both types of result can be computed together.
o residuals.ppm
Argument 'coefs' has been renamed 'new.coef' for consistency
with fitted.ppm etc.
o residuals.ppm
If drop=TRUE the window associated with the residuals
is now taken to be the domain of integration of the composite likelihood.
o intensity.ppp
Now has argument 'weights'
o density.ppp, Smooth.ppp, markmean, markvar, intensity.ppp
Argument 'weights' can now be an 'expression'.
o pcf
New argument 'domain' causes the computation to be restricted to
a subset of the window.
o nnclean
The result now has attributes which give the fitted parameter values,
information about the fitting procedure, and the histogram bar heights.

Extra arguments are now passed to hist.default.
o plot.tess
For a tessellation represented by a pixel image,
plot.tess no longer treats the pixel labels as palette colours.

New option ('monochrome') controls whether plots generated by spatstat
will be displayed in colour or in greyscale. This will eventually be
applied to all plot commands in spatstat.
o plot.im, persp.im, contour.im, plot.owin, plot.psp, plot.fv, plot.fasp
These functions now obey spatstat.options('monochrome')
o plot.ppp, plot.owin, plot.im, plot.psp, plot.tess, plot.layered

when a plot is added to an existing plot. If show.all = TRUE
then everything is plotted, including the main title and colour ribbon.
o plot.ppp
New argument 'show.window'
o plot.im
New arguments 'add' and 'do.plot'.
More arguments recognised by 'ribargs'
o plot.layered
New arguments 'add', 'main'

Abdollah Jalilian. Bug was always present.
Fixed.
o pair correlation functions (pcf.ppp, pcfdot, pcfcross, pcfinhom, ...)
The result had a negative bias at the maximum 'r' value,
because contributions to the pcf estimate from interpoint distances
greater than max(r) were mistakenly omitted.
Spotted by Rasmus Waagepetersen and Abdollah Jalilian.
Bug was always present.
Fixed.
o demo(spatstat)
This demonstration script had some unwanted side-effects, such as
rescaling the coordinates of standard datasets 'bramblecanes',
'amacrine' and 'demopat', which caused the demonstration to crash
when it was repeated several times, and caused errors in demo(data).
Fixed.
o rmh

o free open-source licence
The restrictive licence conditions of 'gpclib' no longer apply
to users of spatstat. Spatstat and all its dependencies are now
covered by a free open-source licence.

on polygons could be performed 'exactly' using gpclib
or 'approximately' using pixel discretisation.
Polygon calculations are now always performed 'exactly'.

CHANGES IN spatstat VERSION 1.33-0
OVERVIEW
o We thank Kurt Hornik and Brian Ripley for advice.
o The package namespace has been modified.
o Numerous internal changes.
o Likelihood cross-validation for smoothing bandwidth.

o fitted.kppm
Method for 'fitted' for cluster/Cox models
SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES
o namespace
The namespace of the spatstat package has been changed.
o internal functions
Some undocumented internal functions are no longer visible,
as they are no longer exported in the namespace. These functions
can still be accessed using the form spatstat:::functionname.
Functions that are not visible are not guaranteed to exist
or to remain the same in future.
o methods
For some generic functions defined in the spatstat package,
it is possible that R may fail to find one of the methods
for the generic. This is a temporary problem due to a restriction
on the size of the namespace in R 3.0.1. It will be fixed in
future versions of R and spatstat. It only applies to methods
for a generic which is a spatstat function (such as nndist)
and does not apply to methods for generics defined elsewhere
(such as density). In the meantime, if this problem should occur,
it can be avoided by calling the method explicitly, in the form
spatstat:::genericname.classname.
o speed
The package should run slightly faster overall, due to the
improvement of the namespace, and changes to internal code.
o envelope
New argument 'envir.simul' determines the environment
in which to evaluate the expression 'simulate'.
o kppm
More flexible models of the intensity, and greater control over the
intensity fitting procedure, are now possible using the arguments
'covfunargs', 'use.gam', 'nd', 'eps' passed to ppm.
Also the argument 'X' may now be a quadrature scheme.
o distcdf
Arguments W and V can now be point patterns.
o Kest
New option: correction = "good"
selects the best edge correction that can be computed in reasonable time.
o bw.diggle
Accelerated.
o predict.ppm
Calculation of standard error has been accelerated.
o smooth.ppp, smooth.fv, smooth.msr
These functions will soon be 'Deprecated' in favour of
the methods Smooth.ppp, Smooth.fv, Smooth.msr respectively.
o stratrand, overlap.owin, update.slrm, edge.Trans, edge.Ripley
These already-existing functions are now documented.
BUG FIXES
o kppm, matclust.estpcf, pcfmodel
The pair correlation function of the Matern Cluster Process
was evaluated incorrectly at distances close to 0.
This could have affected the fitted parameters
in matclust.estpcf() or kppm(clusters="MatClust").
Fixed.
o anova.ppm
Would cause an error in future versions of R
when 'anova.glm' is removed from the namespace.
Fixed.

it was not the raw estimate described in the help files).
Spotted by Tom Lawrence.
Fixed.
o edges2vees
Format of result was incorrect if there were fewer than 3 edges.
Fixed.
o Jfox
The theoretical value (corresponding to independence between X and Y)
was erroneously given as 0 instead of 1.
Spotted by Patrick Donnelly.
Fixed.
o ppm, quadscheme, default.dummy
If the grid spacing parameter 'eps' was specified,
the quadrature scheme was sometimes slightly incorrect
(missing a few dummy points near the window boundary).
Fixed.

If a formula was used to specify the plot,
the names of variables in the formula were sometimes
incorrectly matched to *functions*.
Spotted by Farzaneh Safavimanesh.
Fixed.
o F3est
Took a very long time if the containing box was very flat,
due to the default value of 'vside'.
Fixed.
o rmh, rmhmodel
An erroneous warning about 'outdated format of rmhmodel object'
sometimes occurred.
Fixed.

o Workaround for bug in RandomFields package.
o Numerous modifications to internal code.
NEW FUNCTIONS
o RandomFieldsSafe
There is a bug in the package 'RandomFields' (version <= 2.0.54)
which causes a crash to occur, in the development version of R
but not in R 2.15.0. To avoid crashing spatstat, we have written
the temporary, undocumented function RandomFieldsSafe()
which returns TRUE if it is safe to use the RandomFields package.
Examples in the spatstat help files for kppm, lgcp.estK, lgcp.estpcf
and rLGCP are only executed if RandomFieldsSafe() returns TRUE.
SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

Many spatstat functions now run faster, and will handle larger datasets,
thanks to improvements in the internal code,
following suggestions from Jens Oehlschlaegel.

Gave incorrect values in very large datasets, due to numerical overflow.
`Very large' typically means about 1 million points in a random pattern,
or 100,000 points in a tightly clustered pattern.
[Overflow cannot occur unless there are at least 46,341 points.]
[Spotted by Sergiy Protsiv.]

Did not correctly handle the case where a single column
of the hyperframe was to be changed.
Fixed.
o help(bw.relrisk), help(rmh.ppm), help(plot.plotppm)

for contributions.
OVERVIEW
o More support for fitted point process models and pixel images.
o Improved plotting of pixel images and envelopes.
o Simulation algorithm for Lennard-Jones process.
o Improvements and bug fixes to envelopes.
o Bug fixes to Metropolis-Hastings simulation.
NEW FUNCTIONS
o pairs.im
Creates a scatterplot matrix for several pixel images.
o model.frame.ppm
Method for 'model.frame' for point process models.
o sort.im
Method for 'sort' for pixel images.
SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES
o plot.fv, plot.fasp
New argument 'shade' enables confidence intervals
or significance bands to be displayed as filled grey shading.
o LennardJones
The parametrisation of this interaction function has been changed.
o rmh, rmhmodel
These functions will now simulate a point process model
that was fitted using the LennardJones() interaction.
o rmh.default, rmhmodel.default
These functions will now simulate a point process model
with the Lennard-Jones interaction (cif='lennard').
o ecdf
This function now works for pixel images.
o dim, row, col
These functions now work for pixel images.
o order
This function now works for pixel images.
o [.im and [<-.im

o density.ppp, smooth.ppp
The return value now has attributes 'sigma' and 'varcov'
reporting the smoothing bandwidth.
o plot.im
The argument 'col' can now be a 'colourmap' object.
This makes it possible to specify a fixed mapping between
numbers and colours (e.g. so that it is consistent between
plots of several different images).
o rmh, spatstat.options
spatstat.options now recognises the parameter 'expand'
which determines the default window expansion factor in rmh.
o rmh
Improved handling of ppm objects with covariates.
o kstest
The 'covariate' can now be one of the characters "x" or "y"
indicating the Cartesian coordinates.
BUG FIXES
o model.matrix.ppm
For a fitted model that used a large number of quadrature points,
model.matrix.ppm sometimes reported an internal error about mismatch
between the model matrix and the quadrature scheme.
Fixed.
o plot.ppx
Minor bugs fixed.
o rmh
In rare cases, the simulated point pattern
included multiple points at the origin (0,0).
(Bug introduced in spatstat 1.17-0.)
Fixed.
o rmh, rmhmodel.ppm
Crashed when applied to a fitted multitype point process model
if the model involved more than one covariate image.
(Spotted by Jorge Mateu)
Fixed.
o density.psp
If any segment had zero length, the result contained NaN values.
(Spotted by Michael Sumner and Sebastian Luque.)
Fixed.

Simulation of the 'Hardcore' process was incorrect.
The hard core radius was erroneously set to zero
so that the simulated patterns were Poisson.
Fixed.

A plot of the pairwise interaction function of a fitted model,
generated by plot(fitin(model)) where model <- ppm(...),
was sometimes incorrect when the model included a hard core.

Predictions and fitted values were incorrect for
objects fitted using ppm(..., method="ho").
Fixed.
o logLik, AIC:
Values of logLik() and AIC() were incorrect for

NEW FUNCTIONS
o Hardcore: Hard core interaction (for use in ppm)
o envelope.pp3: simulation envelopes for 3D point patterns
o npoints: number of points in a point pattern of any kind
SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES
o rmh.ppm, rmhmodel.ppm:
It is now possible to simulate Gibbs point process models
that are fitted to multitype point patterns using a
non-multitype interaction, e.g.
data(amacrine)
fit <- ppm(amacrine, ~marks, Strauss(0.1))
rmh(fit, ...)
o rmh.ppm, rmhmodel.ppm, rmh.default, rmhmodel.default:
Hard core models can be simulated.
o rmh.default, rmhmodel.default:
The argument 'par' is now required to be a list, in all cases
(previously it was sometimes a list and sometimes a vector).
o Fest:
Calculation has been accelerated in some cases.
o summary.pp3 now returns an object of class 'summary.pp3'
containing useful summary information. It is plotted by
'plot.summary.pp3'.
o F3est, G3est, K3est: these functions now accept
'correction="best"'

these functions now handle any number of windows.
o envelope.ppp, envelope.ppm, envelope.kppm:
argument lists have changed slightly
BUG FIXES
o Fest: The result of Fest(X, correction="rs") had a slightly
corrupted format, so that envelope(X, Fest, correction="rs")
in fact computed the envelopes based on the "km" correction.
(Spotted by Ege Rubak).
Fixed.
o rmh (rmh.ppm, rmhmodel.ppm):
rmh sometimes failed for non-stationary point process models,
with a message about "missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed".
(Spotted by Andrew Bevan).
Fixed.
o diagnose.ppm, lurking:
Calculations were not always correct if the model
had conditional intensity equal to zero at some locations.
Fixed.
o ppm, profilepl:
If data points are illegal under the model (i.e. if any
data points have conditional intensity equal to zero)
the log pseudolikelihood should be -Inf but was sometimes
returned as a finite value. Thus profilepl did not always
work correctly for models with a hard core.
Fixed.
o F3est, G3est:
Debug messages were printed unnecessarily.
Fixed.
