Spatial Autocorrelation
Glossary AutoA prefix literally meaning self; spatial autocorrelation means self-correlation, or values within a given variable are correlated, resulting in the variable being correlated with itself. Correlation A description of the nature and degree of a relationship between a pair of quantitative variables. Geary Ratio An index of spatial autocorrelation, involving the computation of squared ...
متن کاملSpatial Autocorrelation
Spatial autocorrelation is a method of Exploratory Spatial Data Analysis (ESDA). The latter set of methods allow for the study and understanding of the spatial distribution and spatial structure as well as they allow for detecting spatial dependence or autocorrelation in spatial data. More specifically, spatial autocorrelation is the correlation between the values of a single variable that is s...
متن کاملGeneralized Shape Autocorrelation
This paper presents an efficient and homogeneous paradigm for automatic acquisition and recognition of nonparametric shapes. Acquisition time varies from linear to cubic in the number of object features. Recognition time is linear to cubic in the number of features in the image and grows slowly with the number of stored models. Nonparametric shape representation is achieved by spatial autocorre...
متن کاملTesting for Spatial Autocorrelation in Areal Data
Consider a linear model for a spatial system of n areal units, (1) , ~ (0,) Y X u u N V where both and V are unknown. The simplest procedure for specifying the covariance matrix, V , is to start by assuming that (2) 2 n V I , so that can be estimated by OLS. Given this estimate, one can then test to see whether there is sufficient spatial autocorrelation in the residuals to warran...
متن کاملSpatial autocorrelation of ecological phenomena.
Ecological variables often fluctuate synchronously over wide geographical areas, a phenomenon known as spatial autocorrelation or spatial synchrony. Development of statistical approaches designed to test for spatial autocorrelation combined with the increasing accessibility of long-term, large-scale ecological datasets are now making it possible to document the patterns and understand the cause...
