Assessing the role of spatial externalities in the survival of Italian innovative startups
Regional Science Policy &Practice, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract The paper provides novel empirical evidence about the effects of spatial externalities on the survival of innovative startups in Italy. Using geocoded firm‐level data, we build micro‐geographic measures of specialization and diversity that are robust to the modifiable areal unit problem.

Application of Dueling DQN and DECGA for Parameter Estimation in Variogram Models
IEEE Access, 2020 Parameter estimation of variogram models is an important problem in geostatistics and environmental engineering. Most of existing works aim to estimate parameters of variogram single models, while neglecting the parameter estimation of variogram nested ...

Geostatistical interpolation of daily rainfall at catchment scale: the use of several variogram models in the Ourthe and Ambleve catchments, Belgium [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2011 Spatial interpolation of precipitation data is of great importance for hydrological modelling. Geostatistical methods (kriging) are widely applied in spatial interpolation from point measurement to continuous surfaces.

A Diagnostic to Assess the Fit of a Variogram Model to Spatial Data
Journal of Statistical Software, 1996 The fit of a variogram model to spatially-distributed data is often difficult to assess. A graphical diagnostic written in S-plus is introduced that allows the user to determine both the general quality of the fit of a variogram model, and to find ...

Variograms of the Cosmic Microwave Background Temperature Fluctuations: Confirmation of Deviations from Statistical Isotropy [PDF]
, 2010 The Standard Inflationary model predicts an isotropic distribution of the Cosmic Microwave Background temperature fluctuations. Detection of deviations from statistical isotropy would call for a revision of the physics of the early universe.

Empirical variogram for achieving the best valid variogram
Communications for Statistical Applications and Methods, 2020 Modeling the statistical autocorrelations in spatial data is often achieved through the estimation of the variograms, where the selection of the appropriate valid variogram model, especially for small samples, is crucial for achieving precise spatial prediction results from kriging interpolations. To estimate such a variogram, we traditionally start by

Verification with Variograms [PDF]
Weather and Forecasting, 2009 Abstract The verification of a gridded forecast field, for example, one produced by numerical weather prediction (NWP) models, cannot be performed on a gridpoint-by-gridpoint basis; that type of approach would ignore the spatial structures present in both forecast and observation fields, leading to misinformative or noninformative ...
