For stationary Poisson or Poisson cluster processes ξ on R2 we study the distribution of the interpoint distances using the interpoint distance function and the nearest-neighbor indicator function . Here Sr (x) is the interior of a circle of radius r having center x, I(t) is that subset of D which has x ∊ D and St(x) ⊂ D and χ is the usual indicator function. We show that if the region D ⊂ R2 is large, then these functions are approximately distributed as Poisson processes indexed by and , where µ(D) is the Lebesgue measure of D.

Using the full-potential linear muffin-tin orbital method within the local spin-density approximation we analyse the influence of the nearest neighbour distance on fcc(111) or hcp(0001) iron layers. The LDA-LSDA error in describing ferromagnetic phases is determined to be at least 15 mRy/atom. As a consequence of this error, our calculations favour paramagnetic ground states. In this sense, the reported results have some model character. However, our analysis of the elastic energy cost under distortions should hold for transition metals in general. Allowing relaxations of the interplanar distance the fcc phase can become energetically favourable over the hcp phase at large lattice mismatches. The main reason for this behaviour is the enhanced stiffness of the hcp interplanar bonds due to the shortening of the axial c/a ratio.

We show that a Poisson cluster point process is a nearest-neighbour Markov point process [2] if the clusters have uniformly bounded diameter. It is typically not a finite-range Markov point process in the sense of Ripley and Kelly [12]. Furthermore, when the parent Poisson process is replaced by a Markov or nearest-neighbour Markov point process, the resulting cluster process is also nearest-neighbour Markov, provided all clusters are non-empty. In particular, the nearest-neighbour Markov property is preserved when points of the process are independently randomly translated, but not when they are randomly thinned.

It is shown that all stationary self-exciting point processes with finite intensity may be represented as Poisson cluster processes which are age-dependent immigration-birth processes, and their existence is established. This result is used to derive some counting and interval properties of these processes using the probability generating functional.

Nearest Neighbour (NN) learning algorithms utilize a distance function to determine the classification of testing examples. The attribute weights in the distance function should be set appropriately. We study situations where a simple approach of setting attribute weights using decision trees does not work well, and design three improvements. We test these new methods thoroughly using artificially generated datasets and datasets from the machine learning repository.

The probability generating functional (p.g.fl.) of a non-homogeneous Poisson cluster process is characterized in Ammann and Thall (1977) via a decomposition of the KLM measure of the process. This p.g.fl. representation is utilized in the present article to show that the family 𝒟 of Poisson cluster processes with a.s. finite clusters is invariant under a class of cluster transformations. Explicit expressions for the finite-dimensional count distributions, product moment measures, and the distribution of clusters are derived in terms of the KLM measure. It is also shown that an element of 𝒟 has no multiple events iff the points of each cluster are a.s. distinct.
