✦ Synopsis
A new edge-corrected estimator is proposed for the second moment cumulative function K(t) introduced by RIPLW (1977, JoumrJ of tlre Royal Slatiaticd Society, SetieS B 39, 172-212). This new estimator is compared by simulation methods with existing edge-corrected estimators in the context of both K ( t ) and L(t) functions which are used to study point patterm. The results of the simulation study suggests that the new estimator provides almost unbiased estimates of K ( t ) and L(t) and has a smaller mean squared error than ita predecessors.
