Some Notes on Parametric Significance Tests for Geographically Weighted Regression
نویسندگان
چکیده
The technique of geographically weighted regression (GWR) is used to model spatial ‘drift’ in linear model coefficients. In this paper we extend the ideas of GWR in a number of ways. First, we introduce a set of analytically derived significance tests allowing a null hypothesis of no spatial parameter drift to be investigated. Second, we discuss ‘mixed’ GWR models where some parameters are fixed globally but others vary geographically. Again, models of this type may be assessed using significance tests.Finally, we consider a means of deciding the degree of parameter smoothing used in GWR based on the Mallows Cp statistic. To complete the paper, we analyze an example data set based on house prices in Kent in the U.K. using the techniques introduced.

Determining Effective Factors on Land Surface Temperature of Tehran Using LANDSAT Images And Integrating Geographically Weighted Regression With Genetic Algorithm
Due to urbanization and changes in the urban thermal environment and since the land surface temperature (LST) in urban areas are a few degrees higher than in surrounding non-urbanized areas, identifying spatial factors affecting on LST in urban areas is very important. Hence, by identifying these factors, preventing this phenomenon become possible using general education, inserting rules and al...

متن کاملStatistical tests for spatial nonstationarity based on the geographically weighted regression model
Geographically weighted regression (GWR) is a way of exploring spatial nonstationarity by calibrating a multiple regression model which allows different relationships to exist at different points in space. Nevertheless, formal testing procedures for spatial nonstationarity have not been developed since the inception of the model. In this paper the authors focus mainly on the development of stat...
