In this paper we consider estimation of cancer incidence rates for local areas. The raw estimates usually are based on small sample sizes and hence are usually unreliable. A hierarchical Bayes generalized linear model is used which connects the local areas thereby enabling one to 'borrow strength' Random effects with pairwise difference priors model the spatial structure in the data. The methods are applied to cancer incidence estimation for census tracts in a certain region of the state of New York.

In general, Independent component analysis (ICA) is a statistical blind source separation technique, used either in spatial or temporal domain. The spatial or temporal ICAs are designed to extract maximally independent sources in respective domains. The underlying sources for spatiotemporal data (sequence of images) can not always be guaranteed to be independent, therefore spatial ICA extracts the maximally independent spatial sources, deteriorating the temporal sources and vice versa. For such data types, spatiotemporal ICA tries to create a balance by simultaneous optimization in both the domains. However, the spatiotemporal ICA suffers the problem of source ambiguity. Recently, constrained ICA (c-ICA) has been proposed which incorporates a priori information to extract the desired source. In this study, we have extended the c-ICA for better analysis of spatiotemporal data. The proposed algorithm, i.e., constrained spatiotemporal ICA (constrained st-ICA), tries to find the desired independent sources in spatial and temporal domains with no source ambiguity. The performance of the proposed algorithm is tested against the conventional spatial and temporal ICAs using simulated data. Furthermore, its performance for the real spatiotemporal data, functional magnetic resonance images (fMRI), is compared with the SPM (conventional fMRI data analysis tool). The functional maps obtained with the proposed algorithm reveal more activity as compared to SPM.

개인의 안전에 직접적인 위협을 끼치는 도심 속의 범죄는 심각한 사회문제 중의 하나이다. 국내에서 범죄에 관한 정보는 주로 범죄 발생지점 주변의 핫스팟 형태로 제공되거나 위치정보가 없는 범죄 통계 형태로 제공되고 있다. 이로 인해 사용자가 실질적인 범죄발생에 취약한 지역을 파악하기가 쉽지 않은 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 공간정보, 통계정보, 공공정보를 이용하여 범죄발생 취약지역을 추출하는 기법을 제안하였다. 범죄발생 취약지역은 각각의 정보를 격자망 기반의 공간분석과 중첩분석을 통하여 추출하였으며 기존의 핫스팟 기반의 범죄관련 정보보다 상세한 범죄 취약정보를 제공하고자 하였다. 본 연구를 통해 추출한 범죄발생취약지역 결과는 국민생활안전지도와 비교하였으며 이를 통해 범죄발생 취약지역의 정확도가 높은 것으로 확인되었다. 본 연구의 결과는 향후 행정업무 차원에서 등급별 범죄 발생위험도 제공에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

공간상관이 존재하는 지리통계 자료(geostatistical data)에 대하여 일반적으로 널리 사용되는 Kriging 모형과 통계학적 공간자료 분석모형인 지리적 가중회귀 모형을 고려하고, 미지의 위치에 대한 예측력을 비교해 본다. 두 모형의 예측력을 검토하기 위하여 환경부 자료를 실증사례로 활용한다. 전국의 116개 대기오염 측정망에서 얻은 1999년의 월별 일산화탄소(Co/ppm) 자료의 평균을 구하여 Kriging모형과 지리적 가중회귀 모형에 적합하고 미지의 위치를 예측하여 예측오차제곱합(PRESS)으로 각각의 방법에 대한 예측성능을 비교한다.

본 연구에서는 최근 들어 그 중요성이 부각되고 있는 도시공간의 보행환경 평가와 관련하여 지역의 보행친화도와 물리적 사회경제적 특성과의 상관관계를 공간통계학적 측면에서 분석 하였다. 이를 위해 부산광역시의 2개 구의 보행성 지수(Walkability Index)를 정량적으로 산출하였고 이에 대한 전역적 국지적 공간 자기상관 측정을 수행하였다. 또한 Walkability Index에 대해 도시환경 변수와의 상관성을 파악하기 위해 지리가중 회귀분석(GWR : Geographically Weighted Regression, 이하 GWR)을 수행하였다. 연구결과 연구지역의 Walkability Index에서 통계적으로 유의한 수준의 공간 자기상관 수치와 군집이 도출되었다. 또한 GWR 분석결과 OLS(Ordinary Least Square Regression, 이하OLS) 회귀모형보다 통계적으로 개선된 추론이 가능 하였으며, 보행 환경변수에 대한 국지적 수준의 영향관계를 도출할 수 있었다. 본 연구의 결과들은 지역의 보행환경 평가 및 그와 연관된 환경변수의 탐색 시 공간 통계학적 접근이 효과적일 수 있음을 시사한다.

As an alternative to the k-means clustering the k-spatial medians clustering has many good points because of advantages of spatial median. However, it has not been used a lot since it needs heavy computation. If the number of objects and the number of variables are large the computation time problem is getting serious. In this study we propose fast algorithm for the k-spatial medians clustering. Practical applicability of the algorithm is shown with some numerical studies.

This study was conducted to investigate the specificities of four fulcrum types for geo-statistical analysis of elevation within rice paddy field. In Korea, the spaces between inter-rows and between hills for rice transplanting are 30cm and 11cm to 14cm, respectively. So, the size and shape of fulcrum for field elevation measurement should be considered according to the inter-row and the hill spaces. Four kinds of fulcrum were chosen such as round-shape with 2.5cm diameter, circular-shape with 10cm diameter, 10cm (one third of inter-row space) by 24cm (double of hill space) rectangular-shape, and 20cm (two-thirds of inter-row space) by 24cm rectangular-shape. The resulting descriptive statistics couldn't determine the best fulcrum type to measure the rice paddy field elevation. But the results of geo-statistical analysis could determine the best fulcrum type. In the case of 10cm by 24cm rectangular-shape fulcrum, Nugget and range, meaning measurement error and/or noise, and limit of spatial connection, respectively, were minimum; Q value meaning weight of spatial structure and $r^2$ value were minimum, and residual sum of squares was minimum. It means that 10cm by 24 cm rectangular-shape fulcrum could best describe the rice paddy field elevation.

This paper deals with robust nonparametric regression analysis when the regressors are functional random fields. More precisely, we consider $Z_i=(X_i,Y_i)$, $i{\in}\mathbb{N}^N$ be a $\mathcal{F}{\times}\mathbb{R}$-valued measurable strictly stationary spatial process, where $\mathcal{F}$ is a semi-metric space and we study the spatial interaction of $X_i$ and $Y_i$ via the robust estimation for the regression function. We propose a family of robust nonparametric estimators for regression function based on the kernel method. The main result of this work is the establishment of the asymptotic normality of these estimators, under some general mixing and small ball probability conditions.

Population is important as a fundamental element of local industry and economy, and census data is essential to regional planning and policy making. Although there have been many researches on population and regional planning, there are few studies on population considering spatial unit. In this study, the population of three spatial scales were compared in order to establish the spatial unit suitable for the rural planning. The study area is Gangwon, Chungcheong-Nam, Chungcheong-Buk, Jeolla-Nam, Jeolla-Buk, Gyeonsang-Nam, Gyeonsang-Buk and Jeju province. Population were compared using statistical data analysis, GIS visualization, and spatial statistics. The mean, maximum, minimum, and variance of population were calculated and the coefficient of variation according to spatial unit was compared. The mean, maximum, minimum, and variance of population were calculated and the coefficient of variation according to spatial unit was compared. As the results, the census output area unit is difficult to interpret spatial analysis results. Administrative district unit has the limit that includes areas where the population does not live. The grid unit is well suited to the geographical characteristics but has many disadvantages of the grid with small population. Therefore, It is necessary to complement the limits of the Eup and Myeon-dong administrative district through the grid unit data.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of young children's age and information processing style in understanding spatial coordinates. For sampling the subjects of this study, Korean version K-ABC Intelligence Test(Moon, Soo-Back, 1997)was conducted with 165 children aged 5-6 who were attending I and G kindergarten in D city. From this pool 30 children who possessed sequential processing style and 30 children who possessed simultaneous processing style were sampled. In order to analyze the understanding of spatial coordinates, a test tool was formulated according to methodology of Blades & Spencer(1989) which was modified. Acquired data was subjected to descriptive and comparative statistical analysis. The following conclusions were arrived at: Firstly, there was significant difference between 5-year-olds and 6-year-olds in understanding spatial coordinates. The 6-year-old group got statistically higher grades than the 5-year-old group in locating a point on the coordinate plane and reading the coordinate numbers. Secondly, there was significant difference between children's information processing style in understanding spatial coordinate. Children with high simultaneous-low sequential processing showed higher performance in locating a point on the coordinate plane and reading coordinate numbers than children with high sequential-low simultaneous processing. Thirdly, after verifying statistical significance of interactivity between young children's age and children's processing strength, there was significant interactive effects in both tasks.
