Stochastic Geometry and Its Applications

This revised and updated edition makes the results and methods of stochastic geometry accessible to practitioners. Topics discussed include the basic theories of point processes, random sets, fibre and surface processes, random tesselations, stereology and the statistical theory of shape.

This monograph on the results and methods of stochastic geometry and spatial statistics is accessible to practitioners and non-theoreticians, and may also be used as an introduction to the subject. Topics covered include the basic theories of point processes, random sets, fibre and surface processes, random tessellations, stereology and the statistical theory of shape. The theory is illustrated by many examples drawn from different branches of science; actual data in the form of images are presented, and their statistical analyses are discussed.
