Abstract:
|
We go back in history to find early uses of point process models. Connecting old-fashioned point process models with new-fangled methodology, we use a neurology data set on nerve endings as a laboratory for model assessment in general clustered point processes. Trying to determine what kind of distinctions a given set of data sets allows is important in choosing model components. We also look at a spatiotemporal data set in visual arts, searching for differences in how novices and more experienced individuals look at art.
