SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

    o Package structure
    The package 'spatstat.core' has been split into two packages called
    'spatstat.explore' (for exploratory data analysis)
    and 'spatstat.model' (for modelling and formal inference).

    o spatstat.explore
    The new package 'spatstat.explore' contains the code for
    exploratory data analysis and nonparametric analysis
    of spatial data. Examples include 'density.ppp', 'Kest',
    'envelope', 'rhohat', 'clarkevans.test'.

    o NEWS
    The NEWS file for the new package 'spatstat.explore'
    contains older news items from the defunct package 'spatstat.core'
    (for functions which are now in 'spatstat.explore').

    o Kest, Kdot, Kcross, Ldot, Lcross, Kmulti
    These functions now accept the option 'correction="periodic"'
    to compute the periodic (toroidal) edge correction estimate.

    o Kest, pcf, Ksector, Kdot, Kcross, Kmulti
    When ratio=TRUE, the denominator is now equal to the number of pairs of
    points considered. This does not affect the estimate of the summary
    function, but it changes the calculation of pooled estimates
    when the estimates were obtained from different sized windows.
    
    o markcorr, markcrosscorr
    These functions now allow negative mark values when normalise=FALSE.
    
    o marktable
    This function now works for point patterns in three dimensions (class 'pp3')
    and point patterns on a network (class 'lpp').
    
    o bw.relrisk
    This function is now generic, with a method for class 'ppp'

    o compileK, compilepcf
    These functions have a new argument 'samplesize'.
    If 'ratio=TRUE' the numerator and denominator will be rescaled
    by a common factor so that the denominator is equal to 'samplesize'.

    o adaptive.density
    Now accepts 'method="nearest"' and passes the data to 'nndensity'.

    o rhohat.ppp
    New options 'smoother="mountain"' and 'smoother="valley"'
    for estimating a unimodal function (U-shaped curve).

    o rhohat.ppp
    If the covariate is a 'distfun', the name of the unit of length is saved
    and displayed on the plot.

    o rhohat.ppp
    New arguments 'jitter', 'jitterfactor', 'interpolate' allow greater
    control over the calculation.

    o rhohat.ppp
    New argument 'do.CI' specifies whether to calculate confidence bands.

    predictions were computed only in the 'subset', and were possibly incorrect values.
    Fixed.

    o intersect.boxx
    Compute intersection of boxes in multi-dimensional space

    o scale.boxx, scale.ppx
    Methods for 'scale' for boxes and patterns in multi-dimensional space

    o shift.boxx, shift.ppx
    Methods for 'shift' for boxes and patterns in multi-dimensional space

    o is.boxx

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

    o rotmean
    The result now has the same 'unitname' as the input object X.
    New argument 'adjust' controls the smoothing bandwidth.
    
    o rlabel
    New argument 'group' specifies that the points are divided into
    several groups, and that relabelling is applied within each group.
    
    o Kcross, Gcross, Jcross
    Function labels (shown on the plot legend) have been
    improved when i = j.

    o anova.mppm
    Issues a warning when applied to random-effects models
    (models fitted using the argument 'random').

BUG FIXES

    o Gest
    If correction="rs" or correction="km", then both the reduced-sample
    (border correction) and Kaplan-Meier corrected estimates were calculated.
    [Spotted by Gopalan Nair.]
    Fixed.

    o simulate.rhohat
    Crashed when applied to rhohat objects computed from data
    on a linear network.
    Fixed.

        CHANGES IN spatstat.core VERSION 1.65-11

OVERVIEW

    o Internal tweaks.
    
        CHANGES IN spatstat.core VERSION 1.65-10

OVERVIEW

    o Minor corrections to documentation.

        CHANGES IN spatstat.core VERSION 1.65-9

OVERVIEW

    o We thank Ian Buller for a suggestion.

    o weights permitted in density calculation for line segments.

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

    o density.psp
    New argument 'weights'.

        CHANGES IN spatstat.core VERSION 1.65-8

OVERVIEW

    o Minor changes to appease the compiler.

        CHANGES IN spatstat.core VERSION 1.65-7

OVERVIEW

    o We thank Michael Chirico for a contribution.

    o Minor changes to appease the compiler.
    
        CHANGES IN spatstat.core VERSION 1.65-6

OVERVIEW

    o We thank Tilman Davies and Pavel Fibich for contributions.

    o Increased speed for large datasets.

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

    o rSSI
    Accelerated.
    
    o overall speed
    Changes have been made to the internal code of spatstat 
    which should accelerate computations involving large datasets.

    o localpcf, localpcfinhom
    New argument 'rvalue'.

BUG FIXES

    o rLGCP
    Simulation results for log-Gaussian Cox processes were incorrect
    unless the pixel dimensions and pixel spacings were identical
    on the horizontal and vertical axes. (If pixel dimensions were not
    specified, then the results were incorrect whenever the Frame of the
    simulation window was not a square.) 
    [Spotted by Tilman Davies.]
    Fixed.
    
    o Vmark
    Crashed if normalise=TRUE when there was only one column of marks.
    (Spotted by Pavel Fibich.)
    Fixed.
    
    o nnclean
    Crashed if k >= npoints(X).
    Fixed.

    CHANGES IN spatstat.core VERSION 1.65-5

OVERVIEW

    o Minor changes required by CRAN.
    

        CHANGES IN spatstat.core VERSION 1.65-1

OVERVIEW

    o Added NEWS file.


        CHANGES IN spatstat.core VERSION 1.65-0

OVERVIEW

    o Package initialised at version 1.65-0

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

    o spatstat.core
    The package 'spatstat.core' has been created from a subset
    of the code in the original 'spatstat' package version 1.65-0.
    It contains the core functionality for statistical analysis of
    spatial data. For an overview, see help("spatstat.core-package")

    o Execution
    The 'spatstat.core' package is slightly faster than the corresponding
    code in the 'spatstat' package, because the procedure for calling
    internal C functions has been streamlined.
