One main question when analyzing a positional, genomic signal, such as peaks called from ChIP-seq data, is how the signal correlates with other signals or genome annotations. Reading the literature this appears to be a non-trivial question from a methodological point of view with no existing gold standard. However, turning to the spatial statistics literature standard measures such a Ripley's...
