A Voronoi based scan for space-time cluster detection in point event data
Content Type: Abstract
Scan statistics are highly successful for the evaluation of space-time clusters. Recently, concepts from the graph theory were applied to evaluate the set of potential clusters. Wieland et al. introduced a graph theoretical… read more… University of Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil E-mail: duczmal@est.ufmg.br Objective We describe a method for … -
Significant multiple high and low risk regions in event data maps
Content Type: Abstract
The Voronoi Based Scan (VBScan)[1] is a fast method for the detection and inference of point data set space-time disease clusters. A Voronoi diagram is built for points representing population individuals (cases and controls). The number of Voronoi… read more… town.
