The model will be updated according to the new arguments provided. The argument \code{trend} determines the formula for the intensity in the model. It should be an \R formula without a left hand side. It may include the symbols \code{.} and \code{+} or \code{-} to specify addition or deletion of terms in the current model formula, as shown in the Examples below. The model is refitted using \code{\link{kppm}}. } \value{ Another fitted cluster point process model (object of class \code{"kppm"}. } \seealso{ \code{\link{kppm}}, \code{\link{plot.kppm}}, \code{\link{predict.kppm}}, \code{\link{simulate.kppm}}, \code{\link[spatstat:methods.kppm]{methods.kppm}}, \code{\link{vcov.kppm}} } \examples{ data(redwood) fit <- kppm(redwood, ~1, "Thomas") fitx <- update(fit, ~ . + x) fitM <- update(fit, clusters="MatClust") } \author{Adrian Baddeley \email{Adrian.Baddeley@csiro.au} \url{http://www.maths.uwa.edu.au/~adrian/} and Rolf Turner \email{r.turner@auckland.ac.nz} } \keyword{spatial} \keyword{models}
