Geographical Detector-based influence factors analysis for Echinococcosis prevalence in Tibet, China.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2021
Echinococcosis, caused by genus Echinococcus, is the most pathogenic zoonotic parasitic disease in the world. In Tibet of the People's Republic of China, echinococcosis refers principally to two types of severe zoonosis, cystic echinococcosis (CE) and ...

Quantifying Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Vegetation and Its Differentiation Mechanism Based on Geographical Detector [PDF]

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2021
Abstract Understanding of the influence of factors on vegetation changes in different is still largely unknown. We have applied the Geographic Detector, a new spatial statistical method to study the interactive effects of factors on the spatial patterns of normalized vegetation index (NDVI) changes and determine the optimal characteristics of ...

Robust geographical detector

International Journal of Applied Earth Observation and Geoinformation, 2022
Geographical detector (GD) is a method to measure spatial associations using a power of determinant (PD) value that compares the variance of data within spatial zones and in the whole study area. Recent studies have implemented GD in diverse fields, such as environmental and socio-economic issues.

Rural Resilience Evaluation and Influencing Factor Analysis Based on Geographical Detector Method and Multiscale Geographically Weighted Regression

Land, 2023
Resilience evaluation is an important foundation for sustainable rural development. Taking the 57 counties in Guangdong province as examples, this study used the CRITIC method to construct a comprehensive evaluation index system for rural resilience and identified the main influencing factors and their spatial heterogeneity on the basis of the ...

Specific urban units identified in tuberculosis epidemic using a geographical detector in Guangzhou, China

Infectious Diseases of Poverty, 2022
Abstract Background A remarkable drop in tuberculosis (TB) incidence has been achieved in China, although in 2019 it was still considered the second most communicable disease. However, TB’s spatial features and risk factors in urban areas remain poorly understood.

Regional differences of hepatitis B discrimination in rural China

Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2021
Background: Hepatitis B (HB) is the most serious and common viral hepatitis in China. Previous studies on HB discrimination mainly have focussed on stratified analysis, and there has been no consideration of the impact of geographical-environmental ...

Optimal discretization for geographical detectors-based risk assessment

GIScience & Remote Sensing, 2013
The geographical detectors model is a new spatial analysis method for the assessment of health risks. It is adapted to discrete risk factors. Meanwhile, the geographical detectors model also effectively analyzes the continuous risk factors by discretizing the continuous data into discrete data.
