Correction to Koen's critical values in testing spatial randomness
Using Ripley's K-function in testing spatial randomness, Koen's estimated critical values deviated notably from Ripley's approximation formula; the former, however, came from an incorrect algorithm. This paper reports new estimates, which agree very well with Ripley's approximation and recommends that the approximation formula can be used instead of Monte-Carlo tests.
