Description

spatialFDA is a package to calculate spatial statistics metrics. The package takes a SpatialExperiment object and calculates spatial statistics metrics using the package spatstat. Then it compares the resulting functions across samples/conditions using functional additive models as implemented in the package refund. Furthermore, it provides exploratory visualisations using functional principal component analysis, as well implemented in refund.
