Cox processes driven by transformed Gaussian processes on linear networks
share
There is a lack of point process models on linear networks. For an arbitrary linear network, we use isotropic covariance functions with respect to the geodesic metric or the resistance metric to construct new models for isotropic Gaussian processes and hence new models for various Cox processes with isotropic pair correlation functions. In particular we introduce three model classes given by log Gaussian, interrupted, and permanental Cox processes on linear networks, and consider for the first time statistical procedures and applications for parametric families of such models. Moreover, we construct new simulation algorithms for Gaussian processes on linear networks and discuss whether the geodesic metric or the resistance metric should be used for the kind of Cox processes studied in this paper.
