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.

The AMANDA Neutrino Telescope: Principle of Operation and First Results [PDF]

, 1999
AMANDA is a high-energy neutrino telescope presently under construction at the geographical South Pole. In the Antarctic summer 1995/96, an array of 80 optical modules (OMs) arranged on 4 strings (AMANDA-B4) was deployed at depths between 1.5 and 2 km ...

SBDM v1.0: A scaling-based discretization method for the Geographical Detector Model [PDF]

, 2018
Abstract. Geographical Detector Model (GDM) can be used to assess the affinity between potential environmental factors and the response variables. If environmental factors entered are continuous, the first step for application of GDM is to discretize the continuous variable into category strata with an appropriate discretization method.
