Inference for spatial processes using imperfect data from measurements and numerical simulations [PDF]
, 2016 We present a framework for inference for spatial processes that have actual values imperfectly represented by data. Environmental processes represented as spatial fields, either at fixed time points, or aggregated over fixed time periods, are studied.

Inferring Colonization Processes from Population Dynamics in Spatially Structured Predator-Prey Systems [PDF]
Ecology, 2000 We examine how spatial subdivision of predator–prey systems affects colonization processes in metapopulations. Dynamics of the herbivorous spider mite Tetranychus urticae (prey) and the predatory mite Phytoseiulus persimilis are highly unstable on isolated bean plants (Phaseolus lunatus) and ultimately result in extinction of prey and predators ...

PLoS ONE, 2015 Spatial ecological patterns reflect the underlying processes that shape the structure of species and communities. Mechanisms like intra- and inter-specific competition, dispersal and host-pathogen interactions can act over a wide range of scales.

Ontology Driven Analysis of Spatio-temporal Phenomena, Aimed At Spatial Planning And Environmental Forecasting [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2013 Spatial planning is a crucial area for balancing civilization development with environmental protection. Spatial planning has a multidisciplinary nature.

PLoS ONE, 2020 Past research has largely ignored children's ability to conjointly manipulate spatial and temporal information, but there are indications that the capacity to do so may provide important support for reasoning about causal processes.

A threshold-free model of numerosity comparisons. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 A dominant mechanism in the Judgment and Decision Making literature states that information is accumulated about each choice option until a decision threshold is met.

Likelihood-based inference for max-stable processes [PDF]
, 2009 The last decade has seen max-stable processes emerge as a common tool for the statistical modeling of spatial extremes. However, their application is complicated due to the unavailability of the multivariate density function, and so likelihood-based ...

Spatial spillover effects from agriculture drive deforestation in Mato Grosso, Brazil
Scientific Reports, 2021 Deforestation of the Amazon rainforest is a threat to global climate, biodiversity, and many other ecosystem services. In order to address this threat, an understanding of the drivers of deforestation processes is required.

Deploying digital health data to optimize influenza surveillance at national and local scales.
PLoS Computational Biology, 2018 The surveillance of influenza activity is critical to early detection of epidemics and pandemics and the design of disease control strategies. Case reporting through a voluntary network of sentinel physicians is a commonly used method of passive ...

Probability as a physical motive [PDF]
, 2007 Recent theoretical progress in nonequilibrium thermodynamics, linking the physical principle of Maximum Entropy Production ("MEP") to the information-theoretical "MaxEnt" principle of scientific inference, together with conjectures from theoretical ...
