The Statistical Analysis through a Computational Method of a Distribution of Points in Relation to its Surrounding Network
Atsuyuki Okabe, Akira Fujii · Environment and Planning A Economy and Space · 1984
The authors give first a statistical method for testing whether or not the distribution of point-like elements on a geographical plane is independent of a network-like element. Second, as this statistical test involves several difficulties in geographical computation, a computational method is developed, by which it can be executed practically.
