Classification of Events Using Local Pair Correlation Functions for Spatial Point Patterns

J. A. González, F. J. Rodríguez Cortés, E. Romano, J. Mateu

Spatial point pattern analysis usually concerns identifying features in an observation window where there is also noise. This identification traditionally begins with studying the second-order properties of the point pattern, and it may be done locally by using local second-order characteristics (LISA). Some properties of this local structure solve the problem of classification into feature and clutter points. This paper proposes an estimator for local pair correlation LISA functions, discusses some of its properties and considers a particular distance to measure dissimilarities. Two classification procedures to separate feature from clutter points are described. One of them adopts multidimensional scaling and support vector machines, and the other employs bagged clustering. Simulations demonstrate the performance of the method, and it is applied to a dataset concerning earthquakes in a seismic nest located in Colombia.

Keywords: Bagged clustering; Bucaramanga nest; Local indicator of spatial associa- tion; Multidimensional scaling; Pair correlation function; Spatial point process; Support Vector Machine.

    Visit Alhambra

    Tomorrow, Thursday, we will visit the Alhambra. 1. At 7:00 p.m., buses will start leaving from the door of the Hotel Granada Center (in front of the door of the Faculty of Sciences) 2. Upon arrival, groups with guides will be organized. 3. There will be groups in English language. These groups will wait at the destination until the arrival of all buses. 4. After the visit to the Alhambra we will walk to the Carmen de los Mártires to have a cocktail. 5. On the way back, we can go back by bus, which will leave from the same place where they left us at the Alhambra. 6. Although the way to the Alhambra by bus seems long, it really is close to the city. We invite you, whoever wishes, to go down for a pleasant walk. 7. Do not forget to take your Alhambra ticket and your identity card or passport. The document must be the same whose number matches the ticket number you have.
