Overview
Rasmus Waagepetersen is a statistician (Aalborg University, Denmark), a leading figure in the theory and estimation of spatial point processes (co-author of the standard monograph Statistical Inference and Simulation for Spatial Point Processes with Møller).
Key Contributions / Features
- Two-step estimation for inhomogeneous point processes (Waagepetersen-Guan 2009): Poisson-score intensity estimation followed by minimum-contrast K-function fitting for residual clustering.
- Foundational work on log-Gaussian Cox processes, estimating functions, and composite likelihood for spatial point patterns.
