Heterogeneity Analysis on Carbon Emissions of Region using Geographically Weighted Regression

Spatiotemporal Heterogeneity Analysis of Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome in China Using Geographically Weighted Regression Models

Hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) is an important public health problem in China. The identification of the spatiotemporal pattern of HFRS will provide a foundation for the effective control of the disease. Based on the incidence of HFRS, as well as environmental factors, and social-economic factors of China from 2005-2012, this paper identified the spatiotemporal characteristics of ...

Spatial Patterns of Carbon Emissions in the U.S.: A Geographically Weighted Regression Approach

This paper uses U.S. county-level data to examine the extent of geographical variability in the process liking emissions of carbon dioxide to measures of population, affluence, and technology. Results from geographically-weighted regression models show that there is strong evidence of geographical heterogeneity and that the magnitude, and in some cases, the direction, of the effects vary within...

C.5 Geographically Weighted Regression

Geographically weighted regression (GWR) was introduced to the geography literature by Brunsdon et al. (1996) to study the potential for relationships in a regression model to vary in geographical space, or what is termed parametric nonstationarity. GWR is based on the non-parametric technique of locally weighted regression developed in statistics for curve-fitting and smoothing applications, w...

Determining Effective Factors on Land Surface Temperature of Tehran Using LANDSAT Images And Integrating Geographically Weighted Regression With Genetic Algorithm

Due to urbanization and changes in the urban thermal environment and since the land surface temperature (LST) in urban areas are a few degrees higher than in surrounding non-urbanized areas, identifying spatial factors affecting on LST in urban areas is very important. Hence, by identifying these factors, preventing this phenomenon become possible using general education, inserting rules and al...
