This research studies the spatial distribution quality of interpolation methods. The aims first to obtain unbiased estimator parameters based on regionalized variables in study field. We used kriging techniques (called Local interpolation) rely variogram function with a fuzzy inference system, where is an extension ordinary kriging. second objective this work estimate covariance models real dat...

A method for the estimation of music similarity based on the use of the standardized variogram as clustering algorithm for Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients, is detailed in this report. The standardized variogram is used for the compression of the information of MFCCs. The algorithm is submitted to the Audio Music Similarity task of MIREX 2011, in occasion of the 12th ISMIR Conference.

In this study, a variogram-based texture analysis was tested for classifying detailed urban land-use classes, such as mobile home, single-family house, multi-family house, industrial, and commercial from a digital color infrared aerial photograph. Spectral classification was first carried out to separate the building class from non-building classes. Then, a building-presence binary image was ge...

Sedimentological processes often result in complex three-dimensional subsurface heterogeneity of hydrogeological parameter values. Variogram-based stochastic approaches are often not able to describe heterogeneity in such complex geological environments. This work shows how multiple-point geostatistics can be applied in a realistic hydrogeological application to determine the impact of complex ...

Variograms are used to describe the spatial variability of environmental variables. In this study, the parameters that characterize the variogram are obtained from a variogram in a different but comparably polluted area. A procedure is presented for improving the variogram modelling when data become available from the area of interest. Interpolation is carried out by means of a Bayesian form of...

We present a general comparison of punctual kriging based image restoration for different neighbourhood sizes. The formulation of the technique under consideration is based on punctual kriging and fuzzy concepts for image restoration in spatial domain. Three different neighbourhood windows are considered to estimate the semivariance at different lags for studying its effect in reduction of nega...

Groundwater flow in a small watershed in a hard rock region of Andhra Pradesh, India mainly exists in a coupled system of weathered and fractured rock aquifers. However, due to heavy extraction, groundwater level has declined and the weathered part has become unsaturated. In general, the water-table aquifer exists in the area under semi-confined or unconfined conditions. Monthly water-levels fr...

The majority of studies assessing aerosol effects on rainfall use coarse spatial scale (1° latitude/longitude or more) and multi-seasonal or decadal data sets. Here, we present results from a spatial correlation of aerosol size distribution and rain rate for selected stratiform and cumuliform precipitation events. The chemistry transport version of the Weather Research and Forecasting model was...

Abstract: Exact and explicit expressions for the variogram of first–order intrinsic autoregressions have not been known. Various asymptotic expansions and approximations have been used to compute the variogram. In this note, an exact and explicit expression applicable for all parameter values is derived. The expression involves Appell’s hypergeometric function of the fourth kind. Various partic...
