Abstract
We shall discuss asymptotic properties of stereological estimators of volume (area) fraction for stationary random sets (in the sense of Matheron) under natural and general assumptions. Results obtained are strong consistency, asymptotic normality, and asymptotic unbiasedness and consistency of asymptotic variance estimators. The method is analogous to the non-parametric estimation of spectral density functions of stationary time series using window functions. Proofs are given for areal estimators, but they are also valid for lineal and point estimators with slight modifications. Finally we show that stationary Boolean models satisfy the relevant assumptions reasonably well.
