Spatial scan statistics in loglinear models
The likelihood ratio spatial scan statistic has been widely used in spatial disease surveillance and spatial cluster detection applications. In order to better understand cluster mechanisms, an equivalent model-based approach is proposed to the spatial scan statistic that unifies currently loosely coupled methods for including ecological covariates in the spatial scan test. In addition, the uti...
متن کاملSpatial Scan Statistics for Models with Excess Zeros and Overdispersion
Introduction Spatial Scan Statistics [1] usually assume Poisson or Binomial distributed data, which is not adequate in many disease surveillance scenarios. For example, small areas distant from hospitals may exhibit a smaller number of cases than expected in those simple models. Also, underreporting may occur in underdeveloped regions, due to inefficient data collection or the difficulty to acc...
متن کاملSpatial scan statistics with overdispersion.
The spatial scan statistic has been widely used in spatial disease surveillance and spatial cluster detection for more than a decade. However, overdispersion often presents in real-world data, causing not only violation of the Poisson assumption but also excessive type I errors or false alarms. In order to account for overdispersion, we extend the Poisson-based spatial scan test to a quasi-Pois...
متن کاملBootstrapping Goodness of Fit Statistics in Loglinear Poisson Models
The possible discrepancy between a hypothesized model and the observed data is measured by so called Goodness of Fit Statistics. In order to decide whether the observed discrepancy is substantial, the distributions of these statistics under the hypothesised model are needed to perform a statistical test. Because of the diiculty to compute the exact distributions, just when the sample size is sm...
متن کاملSpatial Scan Statistics on the GPGPU
Kulldorff’s spatial scan statistic and the software implementation (SaTScan) are widely used for the detection and evaluation of geographic clusters, particularly within the health care community. Unfortunately, the computational time of the scan statistic depends on a wide variety of variables, and, depending on the chosen parameter settings and operations, the computational time can be on the...
