Spatial cluster detection using dynamic programming
BACKGROUND The task of spatial cluster detection involves finding spatial regions where some property deviates from the norm or the expected value. In a probabilistic setting this task can be expressed as finding a region where some event is significantly more likely than usual. Spatial cluster detection is of interest in fields such as biosurveillance, mining of astronomical data, military sur...
متن کاملWord Endpoint Detection Using Dynamic Programming
The paper deals with the use of dynamic programming for word endpoint detection in isolated word recognition. Endpoint detection is based on likelihood maximization. Expectation maximization approach is used to deal with the problem of unknown parameters. Speech signal and background noise energy is used as features for making decision. Performance of the proposed approach was evaluated using i...
متن کاملAnomalous Spatial Cluster Detection
We describe a general statistical and computational framework for the detection of anomalous spatial clusters, based on the spatial scan statistic [1]. Much of this material has been adapted from [2], to which we refer the reader for a more detailed discussion. We focus here on the purely spatial cluster detection task; for extensions to space-time cluster detection, the reader is referred to [...
متن کاملSpatial multiresolution cluster detection method
A novel multi-resolution cluster detection (MCD) method is proposed to identify irregularly shaped clusters in space. Multi-scale test statistic on a single cell is derived based on likelihood ratio statistic for Bernoulli sequence, Poisson sequence and Normal sequence. A neighborhood variability measure is defined to select the optimal test threshold. The MCD method is compared with single sca...
متن کاملSpatial event cluster detection using an approximate normal distribution
BACKGROUND In geographic surveillance of disease, areas with large numbers of disease cases are to be identified so that investigations of the causes of high disease rates can be pursued. Areas with high rates are called disease clusters and statistical cluster detection tests are used to identify geographic areas with higher disease rates than expected by chance alone. Typically cluster detect...
