Investigations into Seasonal ARMA processes
This thesis examines issues of seasonality in ARMA processes, comparing and contrasting Box-Jenkins seasonality with Gegenbauer seasonality, and the SGAR or seasonal GAR model. Novel contributions of this thesis include new estimation methods for Gegenbauer seasonality - a log-Whittle estimator and a Bayesian MCMC estimator using a Whittle likelihood,

Rolling and Burning to Transform Woody Species Thickets and Restore Abandoned Farmland
ABSTRACT Woody plant encroachment is a key issue that needs to be addressed when restoring abandoned farmland previously used for livestock grazing. In a conservation context, woody shrubs can be problematic if they prevent the establishment of a desired vegetation composition and structure by outcompeting other species for light, nutrients and water ...

Spatial–Temporal Graph Learning for Taxi Origin–Destination Demand Prediction
To address the challenges of origin–destination semantic differentiation and data sparsity in taxi origin–destination demand prediction, we propose a multilevel continuous‐time dynamic node‐ based attention network (MCNAT). The results show that MCNAT outperforms the base model in all metrics.
