Abstrakt: The (conditional or unconditional) distribution of the continuous scan statistic in a onedimensional Poisson process may be approximated by that of a discrete analogue via time discretization (to be referred to as the discrete approximation). Using a change of measure argument, we derive the first-order term of the discrete approximation which involves some functionals of the Poisson process. Richardson's extrapolation is then applied to yield a corrected (second-order) approximation. Numerical results are presented to compare various approximations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
