Abstract
Pseudo-likelihood equations to estimate the pair potential function of Gibbs point process through field observations are derived in unmarke d and multitype cases. The requirements the pair potential function se ts our for observations are also considered. The pseudo-likelihood est imation method is applied to forest data consisting of so-called INKA sample plots.
