The use of object-orientation for both spatial data and spatial process models facilitates their integration, which can allow exploration and explanation of spatial-temporal phenomena. In order to better understand how tight coupling might proceed and to evaluate the possible functional and efficiency gains from such a tight coupling, we identify four key relationships affecting how geographic ...

conclusions physicians should be aware of the signs and symptoms of different pain sources to prevent misdiagnosis and maltreatment. introduction fracture of the styloid process (sp) of the temporal bone is a rare traumatic injury in normal individuals who are not suffering from eagle’s syndrome. diagnosis and management of this problem requires comprehensive knowledge about its signs and sympt...

This paper presents a model that describes spatial variations of the intensity of events that occur at random geographical locations. An inhomogeneous Poisson process is used to model the intensity over a spatial region with multiplicative spatial and temporal covariate effects. Dynamic temporal effects are incorporated into the model allowing changes in the intensity structure over time. Addit...

the relationship between topography, land use, and topsoil moisture storage is investigated for a small catchment with undulating deep loess hilslopes in the south of the netherlands. for a period of 10 months, soil moisture profiles have been measured weekly at 15 locations throughout the catchment. a generalized additive model was employed to find relationships between the various factors inf...

Simple cells in the primary visual cortex process incoming visual information with receptive ¢elds localized in space and time, bandpass in spatial and temporal frequency, tuned in orientation, and commonly selective for the direction of movement. It is shown that performing independent component analysis (ICA) on video sequences of natural scenes produces results with qualitatively similar spa...

Spatio-temporal Cox point process models with a multiplicative structure for the driving random intensity, incorporating covariate information into temporal and spatial components, and with a residual term modelled by a shot-noise process, are considered. Such models are flexible and tractable for statistical analysis, using spatio-temporal versions of intensity and inhomogeneous K-functions, q...

It is now commonly accepted that over 70% of web pages contain spatial and temporal referencesthrough the use of place names, addresses, geographical coordinates, dates, etc. However, the temporal and spatialdescriptions are currently unexploited by search engines, when they could be used in the search process for defining thecontext of a query, for query disambiguation, for result ...
