We discuss issues arising when a spatial pattern is observed within some bounded region of space, and one wishes to predict the process outside of this region (extrapolation) as well as to perform inference on features of the pattern that cannot be observed (interpolation). We focus on spatial cluster analysis. Here the interpolation arises from the fact that the centres of clustering are not observed. We take a Bayesian approach with a repulsive Markov prior, derive the posterior distribution of the complete data, i.e. cluster centres with associated offspring marks, and propose an adaptive coupling from the past algorithm to sample from this posterior. The approach is illustrated by means of the redwood data set (Ripley, 1977).
