Maximum-likelihood estimation for multivariate spatial linear coregionalization models
نویسنده
چکیده
A multivariate spatial linear coregionalization model is considered that incorporates the Matérn class of covariograms. An EM algorithm is developed for maximum-likelihood estimation that has a few desirable properties and is capable of handling high-dimensional data. Most estimates in the EM algorithm are updated through closed form expressions and these estimates automatically satisfy necessary constraints. The model and algorithm are illustrated through a real example. Copyright # 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

A comparison of algorithms for maximum likelihood estimation of Spatial GLM models
In spatial generalized linear mixed models, spatial correlation is assumed by adding normal latent variables to the model. In these models because of the non-Gaussian spatial response and the presence of latent variables the likelihood function cannot usually be given in a closed form, thus the maximum likelihood approach is very challenging. The main purpose of this paper is to introduce two n...
متن کاملParameter Estimation in Spatial Generalized Linear Mixed Models with Skew Gaussian Random Effects using Laplace Approximation
Spatial generalized linear mixed models are used commonly for modelling non-Gaussian discrete spatial responses. We present an algorithm for parameter estimation of the models using Laplace approximation of likelihood function. In these models, the spatial correlation structure of data is carried out by random effects or latent variables. In most spatial analysis, it is assumed that rando...
متن کاملChange Point Estimation of the Stationary State in Auto Regressive Moving Average Models, Using Maximum Likelihood Estimation and Singular Value Decomposition-based Filtering
In this paper, for the first time, the subject of change point estimation has been utilized in the stationary state of auto regressive moving average (ARMA) (1, 1). In the monitoring phase, in case the features of the question pursue a time series, i.e., ARMA(1,1), on the basis of the maximum likelihood technique, an approach will be developed for the estimation of the stationary state’s change...
متن کاملMultivariate Analysis and Spatial/Temporal Scales: Real and Complex Models
Comparing different scales in space or time the correlation between regionalized quantities can change substantially. Coregionalization models incorporate a description of the variation and covariation of a set of variables at different characteristic scales either in space or in time. Such models can be used as a device to explore the structure of multivariate spatial or temporal data in the f...
متن کاملCross-Covariance Functions for Multivariate Geostatistics
Continuously indexed datasets with multiple variables have become ubiquitous in the geophysical, ecological, environmental and climate sciences, and pose substantial analysis challenges to scientists and statisticians. For many years, scientists developed models that aimed at capturing the spatial behavior for an individual process; only within the last few decades has it become commonplace to ...
