Beschreibung

SPATIAL ANALYSIS Explore the foundations and latest developments in spatial statistical analysis In Spatial Analysis, two distinguished authors deliver a practical and insightful exploration of the statistical investigation of the interdependence of random variables as a function of their spatial proximity. The book expertly blends theory and application, offering numerous worked examples and exercises at the end of each chapter. Increasingly relevant to fields as diverse as epidemiology, geography, geology, image analysis, and machine learning, spatial statistics is becoming more important to a wide range of specialists and professionals. The book includes: * Thorough introduction to stationary random fields, intrinsic and generalized random fields, and stochastic models * Comprehensive exploration of the estimation of spatial structure * Practical discussion of kriging and the spatial linear model Spatial Analysis is an invaluable resource for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students in statistics, data science, digital imaging, geostatistics, and agriculture. It's also an accessible reference for professionals who are required to use spatial models in their work.

Rezensionen

s not possible to imagine two better guides to this domain than John Kent and Kanti Mardia. In Spatial Analysis Kent and Mardia provide a comprehensive guide to modern thinking that is classically grounded. This book is a must-read for those who are taking understanding seriously as part of handling modern spatial data sets across the domains of machine learning, statistics and data science.
The modern world of big data is often accompanied by little understanding. Often this data comes in a spatial form, and critically our understanding emerges from spatial analysis. It'

s most eminent researchers in the field of spatial statistics and shape analysis. The book eloquently discusses most of the topics in spatial analysis in a wonderfully organised manner. For example, there are two chapters on random fields, two chapters on estimation methods, one on modelling and another large chapter on kriging. With another chapter on additional topics such as Co-kriging, Bayesian hierarchical modeling, spatio-temporal modeling, and thin plate splines this book covers most of the concepts researchers need to know in this area. The main emphasis of the book is on theoretical aspects but it does not lose sight of applications. The chapter one itself motivates the theory with several example data sets which include fingerprint of the famous statistician Sir R A Fisher. The book does justice to the theory by presenting and explaining it in an accessible format for all - graduate students and researchers. The book also provides enjoyable to read personal historical notes and anecdotes regarding the course of development of the theory of spatial analysis.

on this wonderful accomplishment.
[Spatial Analysis] is a splendid text on spatial statistics written by two eminent scholars in the field who have beautifully presented a wide range of topics. The text begins with some very interesting examples of spatially oriented data and their features and is followed by some superbly compiled expository chapters. What is especially appealing, in my opinion, is the attention paid by the authors to the theoretical developments and exposition of seemingly abstruse topics. The book is compactly written while retaining mathematical rigor. Specifically, the chapters on different flavours of spatial random fields and that on conditional autoregression models stand out in terms of their clarity of presentation. Inference primarily focuses on likelihood based methods and kriging, while appearing somewhat late in the book (Chapter 7 out of eight chapters), receives a very detailed treatment that includes Bayesian prediction methods as well. In summary, this elegant text will serve students, researchers and scholars invested in spatial statistics very well as a source of reference as well as a text to build courses from. I congratulate the authors'
