Bayesian Spatial Uncertainty Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
The term uncertainty originates from imperfect knowledge of the processes under question. These errors are sometimes associated with questionable data quality and scarcity; complexity of the phenomena that are treated by models as simplified systems. Important components of uncertainty analysis include (i) qualitative analysis that identifies the uncertainties, (ii) quantitative analysis of the effects of the uncertainties on the decision process, and (iii) communication of the uncertainty (Funtowwicz and Ravetz 1990, Petersen 2000, Regan et a1.2002, Katz 2002). In landscape simulations (which are widely used in landscape ecology) a generation of landscape patterns is taking place for the investigation of the local or global connectivity between regions. Neighbourhood structures are used for that purpose to explain and analyse the spatial connectivity between smaller to bigger regions including investigation of the spatial homogeneity. Modelling of that spatiality involves conditional probabilities which are explained by Markov random fields models. Estimation of these particular models could be introduce a Bayesian statistics analysis based on these conditional probabilities which are explained the spatial variability into the regions especially when hidden information’s are involved (Zimeras and Matsinos, 2011). In this work a spatial analysis methodology based on Bayesian analysis was introduced and procedures to solve the problem with spatial variability are described based on point estimation

Joint Bayesian Stochastic Inversion of Well Logs and Seismic Data for Volumetric Uncertainty Analysis
Here in, an application of a new seismic inversion algorithm in one of Iran’s oilfields is described. Stochastic (geostatistical) seismic inversion, as a complementary method to deterministic inversion, is perceived as contribution combination of geostatistics and seismic inversion algorithm. This method integrates information from different data sources with different scales, as prior informat...
متن کاملBayesian Analysis of Spatial Probit Models in Wheat Waste Management Adoption
The purpose of this study was to identify factors influencing the adoption of wheat waste management by wheat farmers. The method used in this study using the spatial Probit models and Bayesian model was used to estimate the model. MATLAB software was used in this study. The data of 220 wheat farmers in Khouzestan Province based on random sampling were collected in winter 2016. To calculate Bay...
متن کاملBayesian Analysis of Survival Data with Spatial Correlation
Often in practice the data on the mortality of a living unit correlation is due to the location of the observations in the study. One of the most important issues in the analysis of survival data with spatial dependence, is estimation of the parameters and prediction of the unknown values in known sites based on observations vector. In this paper to analyze this type of survival, Cox...
متن کاملBayesian Analysis of Censored Spatial Data Based on a Non-Gaussian Model
Abstract: In this paper, we suggest using a skew Gaussian-log Gaussian model for the analysis of spatial censored data from a Bayesian point of view. This approach furnishes an extension of the skew log Gaussian model to accommodate to both skewness and heavy tails and also censored data. All of the characteristics mentioned are three pervasive features of spatial data. We utilize data augme...
