EXACT SIMULATION OF A BOOLEAN MODEL

A Boolean model is a union of independent objects (compact random subsets) located at Poisson points. Two algorithms are proposed for simulating a Boolean model in a bounded domain. The first one applies only to stationary models. It generates the objects prior to their Poisson locations. Two exampl...
