}
\details{
The function \code{diagnose.ppm} generates several diagnostic plots for a
fitted point process model.
The plots display the residuals from the fitted model
(Baddeley et al, 2005)
or alternatively the `exponential energy marks' (Stoyan and Grabarnik, 1991).
These plots can be used to
assess goodness-of-fit, to identify outliers in the data,
and to reveal departures from the fitted model.
See also the companion function \code{\link{qqplot.ppm}}.
The argument \code{object} must be a fitted point process model
(object of class \code{"ppm"}) typically produced by the maximum
pseudolikelihood fitting algorithm \code{\link{ppm}}).
The argument \code{type} selects the type of residual or weight
that will be computed. Current options are:
\describe{
\item{\code{"eem"}:}{
exponential energy marks (Stoyan and Grabarnik, 1991)
computed by \code{\link{eem}}.
These are positive weights attached to the data points
(i.e. the points of the point pattern dataset
to which the model was fitted).
If the fitted model is correct, then the sum of these weights
for all data points in a spatial region \eqn{B}
has expected value equal to the
area of \eqn{B}. See \code{\link{eem}} for further explanation.
}
\item{\code{"raw"}, \code{"inverse"} or \code{"pearson"}:}{
point process residuals (Baddeley et al, 2005)
computed by the function \code{\link{residuals.ppm}}.
These are residuals attached both to the data points and to some
other points in the window of observation (namely, to the dummy
points of the quadrature scheme used to fit the model).
If the fitted model is correct, then the sum of the
residuals in a spatial region \eqn{B} has mean zero.
The options are
\itemize{
\item
\code{"raw"}: the raw residuals;
\item
\code{"inverse"}: the `inverse-lambda' residuals,
a counterpart of the exponential energy weights;
\item
\code{"pearson"}: the Pearson residuals.
}
See \code{\link{residuals.ppm}} for further explanation.
}
}
The argument \code{which} selects the type of plot that is
produced. Options are:
\describe{
\item{\code{"marks"}:}{
plot the residual measure.
For the exponential energy weights (\code{type="eem"})
this displays circles centred at the points of the data pattern,
with radii proportional to the exponential energy weights.
For the residuals (\code{type="raw"}, \code{type="inverse"}
or \code{type="pearson"}) this again displays circles centred at
the points of the data pattern with radii proportional to the
(positive) residuals, while the plotting of the negative residuals
depends on the argument \code{plot.neg}. If
\code{plot.neg="image"} then the negative part of the residual
measure, which is a density, is plotted as a colour image.
If \code{plot.neg="discrete"} then the discretised negative
residuals (obtained by approximately integrating the negative
density using the quadrature scheme of the fitted model)
are plotted as squares centred at the dummy points
with side lengths proportional to the (negative) residuals.
[To control the size of the circles and squares, use the argument
\code{maxsize}.]
}
\item{\code{"smooth"}:}{
plot a kernel-smoothed version of the residual measure.
Each data or dummy point is taken to have a `mass' equal to its
residual or exponential energy weight.
(Note that residuals can be negative).
This point mass is then replaced by
a bivariate isotropic Gaussian density
with standard deviation \code{sigma}.
The value of the smoothed residual field at
any point in the window is the sum of these weighted densities.
If the fitted model is correct, this smoothed field
should be flat, and its height should be close to 0
(for the residuals) or 1 (for the exponential energy weights).
The field is plotted either as an image, contour plot or
perspective view of a surface, according to the
argument \code{plot.smooth}.
The range of values of the smoothed field is printed
if the option \code{which="sum"} is also selected.
}
\item{\code{"x"}:}{
produce a `lurking variable' plot for the \eqn{x} coordinate.
This is a plot of \eqn{h(x)} against \eqn{x} (solid lines)
and of \eqn{E(h(x))} against \eqn{x} (dashed lines),
where \eqn{h(x)} is defined below, and \eqn{E(h(x))} denotes the
expectation of \eqn{h(x)} assuming the fitted model is true.
\itemize{
\item
if \code{cumulative=TRUE} then \eqn{h(x)} is the cumulative sum of
the weights or residuals for all points
which have \eqn{X} coordinate less than or equal to \eqn{x}.
For the residuals \eqn{E(h(x)) = 0},
and for the exponential energy weights
\eqn{E(h(x)) = } area of the subset of the window to the left of
the line \eqn{X=x}.
\item
if \code{cumulative=FALSE} then
\eqn{h(x)} is the marginal integral of
the smoothed residual field (see the case \code{which="smooth"}
described above) on the \eqn{x} axis.
This is approximately the derivative
of the plot for \code{cumulative=TRUE}.
The value of \eqn{h(x)} is computed by summing the values of
the smoothed residual field over all pixels with
the given \eqn{x} coordinate.
For the residuals \eqn{E(h(x)) = 0},
and for the exponential energy weights
\eqn{E(h(x)) = } length of the intersection between the
observation window and the line \eqn{X=x}.
}
If \code{plot.sd = TRUE}, then superimposed on the lurking variable
plot are the pointwise
two-standard-deviation error limits for \eqn{h(x)} calculated for the
inhomogeneous Poisson process. The default is \code{plot.sd = TRUE}
for Poisson models and \code{plot.sd = FALSE} for non-Poisson
models.
}
\item{\code{"y"}:}{
produce a similar lurking variable plot for the \eqn{y} coordinate.
}
\item{\code{"sum"}:}{
print the sum of the weights or residuals for all points
in the window (clipped by a margin \code{rbord} if required)
and the area of the same window. If the fitted model is correct
the sum of the exponential energy weights should equal the area of
the window, while the sum of the residuals should equal zero.
Also print the range of values of the smoothed field
displayed in the \code{"smooth"} case.
}
\item{\code{"all"}:}{
All four of the diagnostic plots listed above are plotted together
in a two-by-two display. Top left panel is \code{"marks"} plot.
Bottom right panel is \code{"smooth"} plot. Bottom left panel is
\code{"x"} plot. Top right panel is \code{"y"} plot, rotated 90 degrees.
}
}
The argument \code{rbord} ensures there are no edge
effects in the computation of the residuals. The diagnostic calculations
will be confined to those points of the data pattern which are
at least \code{rbord} units away from the edge of the window.
The value of \code{rbord} should be greater than or equal to
the range of interaction permitted in the model.
By default, the two-standard-deviation limits are calculated
from the exact formula for the asymptotic variance
of the residuals under the asymptotic normal approximation,
equation (37) of Baddeley et al (2006).
However, for compatibility with the original paper
of Baddeley et al (2005), if \code{oldstyle=TRUE},
the two-standard-deviation limits are calculated
using the innovation variance, an over-estimate of the true
variance of the residuals. (However, see the section about
Replicated Data).
The argument \code{rv} would normally be used only by experts.
It enables the user to substitute arbitrary values for the
residuals or marks, overriding the usual calculations.
If \code{rv} is present, then instead of calculating the residuals from
the fitted model, the algorithm takes the residuals from the object
\code{rv}, and plots them in the manner appropriate to the type of residual
or mark selected by \code{type}. If \code{type ="eem"} then
\code{rv} should be similar to the return value of \code{\link{eem}},
namely, a numeric vector of length equal to
the number of points in the original data point pattern.
Otherwise, \code{rv} should be similar to the return value of
\code{\link{residuals.ppm}}, that is, it should be an object of
class \code{"msr"} (see \code{\link{msr}}) representing a signed
measure.
The return value of \code{diagnose.ppm}
is an object of class \code{"diagppm"}.
The \code{plot} method for this class is documented here.
There is also a \code{print} method. See the Examples.
In \code{plot.diagppm},
if a four-panel diagnostic plot is produced (the default), then
the extra arguments \code{xlab}, \code{ylab}, \code{rlab} determine the
text labels for the \eqn{x} and \eqn{y} coordinates
and the residuals, respectively.
The undocumented arguments \code{col.neg} and \code{col.smooth}
control the colour maps used in the top left and bottom right
panels respectively.
See also the companion functions \code{\link{qqplot.ppm}}, which produces a
Q-Q plot of the residuals, and \code{\link{lurking}}, which produces
lurking variable plots for any spatial covariate.

\section{Replicated Data}{
Note that if \code{object} is a model that was obtained by
first fitting a model to replicated point pattern data using
\code{\link{mppm}} and then using \code{\link{subfits}} to extract
a model for one of the individual point patterns, then the
variance calculations are only implemented for the
innovation variance (\code{oldstyle=TRUE}) and this is the default
in such cases.
