Spatial point processes constitute a fundamental statistical framework for modelling the spatial distribution of events across a continuum. This field bridges theoretical developments in probability ...

Higher yields and fewer weeds are possible if farmers sow wheat, maize, soy and other crops in more uniform spatial patterns, according to researchers. More precise sowing can also help reduce ...

Figure 1 shows the distribution of deaths for 11 hazard categories as a percent of total hazard deaths from 1970 - 2004. Heat/drought ranks highest among these hazard categories causing 19.6% of total ...

We give a functional central limit theorem for spatial birth and death processes based on the representation of such processes as solutions of stochastic equations. For any bounded and integrable ...

A spatial analysis of crime in Chicago suggests that certain environmental and socioeconomic factors, such as building density, are linked with crime rates, but these relationships differ between ...

In this piece, I highlight one particular talk that caught my interest — given by Elana Fertig, Dean E. Albert Reece Endowed ...
