Abstract:

In this work the regression problem for random sets of the Boolean model type is developed, where the corresponding Poisson process of the model is related to some explanatory variables, assuming the random grains are not affected by these variables. The propagation model is introduced and some methods for fitting this model are presented. Then the model is applied in a simulation study.
