Envelope tests for spatial point patterns with and without simulation

Abstract Model testing is a central step of spatial point pattern analysis, which allows ecologists to judge if their data agree with ecological hypotheses. We present a simple and elegant solution of a challenging problem: the construction of a goodness‐of‐fit envelope test with prescribed signific...
