摘要
Given a Poisson process in two or three dimensions, we are interested in the scan statistic, i.e. the largest number of points contained in a translate of a fixed scanning set restricted to lie inside a rectangular area. The distribution of the scan statistic is accurately approximated for rectangular scanning sets, using a technique that is also extended to higher dimensions. The accuracy of the approximation is checked through simulation.
