Compute the probabilistic pair correlation function
#include "dip_analysis.h"
dip_Error dip_ProbabilisticPairCorrelation ( object, mask, dist, probes, length, sampling, covariance )
float
This function computes the probabilistic pair correlation function of the different phases in object. Each image in the image array phases is treated as a separate phase. The function assumes, but does not check, that the values in these images are with the [0 1] range. Optionally a mask image can be provided so select which pixels in object should be used to compute the pair correlation. The probes variable specifies how many random point pairs should be drawn to compute the function. Length specifies the maximum correlation length. The correlation function can be computed using a random of grid method, as specified by sampling. Finally covariance determines whether only the correlations ( DIP_FALSE) or the covarianances (DIP_TRUE) has to be computed.
