What is Poisson point process?
A '''Poisson process''' is a [[stochastic process]]. It counts the number of occurrences of an event leading up to a specified time. This is a [[counting process]] where the increments of time are independent of one another (the times do not overlap). ==Definition== The counting process known as the Poisson process is defined as: * N(0) = 0. * N(t) has independent increments. * The number of arrivals in any window of time follows a [[Poisson distribution]]. Where N(t) is the total number of events that occur by time t. [[Category:Statistics]]
