Spatial quantile clustering of climate data
气候数据的空间分位数聚类
In the era of climate change, the distribution of climate variables evolves with changes not limited to the mean value. Consequently, clustering algorithms based on central tendency could produce misleading results when used to summarize spatial and/or temporal patterns. We present a novel approach to spatial clustering of time series based on quantiles using a Bayesian framework that incorporates a spatial dependence layer based on a Markov random field. A series of…
