Abstract
SUMMARY The likelihood procedure for estimating the pairwise interaction potential function is developed for statistical analysis of homogeneous spatial point patterns. Approximation methods of the normalizing factor of Gibbs canonical distribution are discussed both to estimate a scale parameter and to measure the softness (or hardness) of repulsive interactions. The approximations are useful up to a considerably high density. The validity of our procedure is demonstrated by some computer experiments. Some real data are analysed.

The objectives of spatial point pattern analsis are discussed with particular reference to the distinction between mapped and sampled data, and a simulation studA of several tests of spatial randonlness is intended to provide some insight into the suitability for model-fitting of various summasy descriptions of a mapped pattern.
