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

Optimal discretization for geographical detectors-based risk assessment
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.
