Spatial Data Analysis
… (LME), and Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR) were discussed. Comparative studies of these modeling techniques were carried out using a real world dataset and an artificially generated spatial dataset. In chapter 3, a recently developed spatial analytical tool, Geographically Weighted …

Factors influencing hunting license sales in urban and rural areas of Illinois
… local model (geographically weighted regression [GWR]) were applied to deal with spatial autocorrelation of the residuals. The first part found that accessibility to hunting resources, economic status, age structure, education, race and ethnicity, and competition with general recreation influenced …

Spatio-temporal modeling of Louisiana land subsidence using high resolution geo-spatial data
… such as Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR), the spatial-lag model and the spatial-error model, so as to find which main factors have caused adverse subsidence in the study site in 2013 (Mardia et al. 1998; Fotheringham et al. 2002; Baller et al. 2001; Wang 2006; Wang et al. 2014; …

Modularized Bayesian Inference: Methodology, Algorithm, Theory And Application.
… to a geographically weighted regression (GWR) model that has been developed to handle the spatial non-stationarity but hitherto not been extended to Bayesian inference except for the Gaussian regression. This thesis proposes the Bayesian GWR model as a certain multiple-module case of …

The Spatial Relationships among Neurotoxicant Exposure, Child Admissions, and Mental Health Assessment Scores: How do they Interact in the State of Ohio?
… models and geographic weighted regression (GWR) was used to examine local relationships.GWR models explained a large percentage of the variance in child admissions (46%) and attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (AD-HD) admissions (40%); however, the total hazard quotient for …

GIS-based urban land use characterization and population modeling with subpixel information measured from remote sensing data
… the population distribution. Both the OLS and GWR models produced poor model fit. In contrast, the land use information extracted from the V-I-S information and LST significantly improved regression models. A three-class land use model is fitted adequately. The GWR model reveals the spatial …

Spatial and Spatiotemporal Modeling of Epidemiological Data
… Various types of regression methods such as OLS, GWR and MGWR were used to study the association between diabetes prevalence and socioeconomic and lifestyle factors on county level data of Midwestern United States. A new analysis workflow is purposed for regression analysis of spatial data. …

Artificial Intelligence and Spatial Modeling to Estimate Traffic Volume Measures on Local Roadways
… conventional Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR) models. Key predictors influencing traffic volume include regional centrality, transit ridership, and employment-residential balance. The results reveal complex, context-dependent relationships, emphasizing the importance of spatial …

Choosing success? Inequalities and opportunities in access to school choice in nine United States districts
… In addition, Geographically Weighted Regression –GWR- analysis is used to assess whether the relation between school choice accessibility and school characteristics vary across all public schools in the U.S. Results from the analysis point to the spatial variation of school choice accessibility, …

Spatial Patterns and Variations of Tornado Damage as Related to Southeastern Appalachian Forests and Terrain from the Franklin County, Virginia EF-3 Tornado
… OLS and geographically weighted regression (GWR) modeling performed poorly, suggesting that an alternative method may be more suitable for modeling, the scale of assessment was inadequate, or that important predictor variables were not captured. Overall, the intensity of the tornado was …

Optimum Timing for CO2-EOR After Waterflooding and Soaking Effect on Miscible CO2 Flooding in a Tight Sandstone Formation,
… CO2- saturated light oil, and gas–water ratio (GWR) of CO2-saturated reservoir brine were measured by using a PVT system. Second, the viscosities of CO2-saturated light oil with different CO2 concentrations were measured by using a capillary viscometer. Third, the equilibrium interfacial …

Forecasting the use of new local railway stations and services using GIS
… and Wales. Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR) has been<br/>used to enhance the performance of these models and to account for local variations in the<br/>effects of explanatory variables on rail demand. Flow level models have been produced<br/>for stations in South-East Wales, with a range …
