kernstadapt

kernstadapt is an R package for adaptive kernel estimation of the intensity of spatio-temporal point processes.

kernstadapt implements functionalities to estimate the intensity of a spatio-temporal point pattern by kernel smoothing with adaptive bandwidth methodology when each data point has its own bandwidth associated as a function of the crowdedness of the region (in space and time) in which the point is observed.

The package presents the intensity estimation through a direct estimator and the partitioning algorithm methodology presented in González and Moraga (2022).
