Scalable Detection of Irregular Disease Clusters Using Soft Compactness Constraints
Content Type: Abstract
The spatial scan statistic [1] detects significant spatial clusters of disease by maximizing a likelihood ratio statistic F(S) over a large set of spatial regions, typically constrained by shape. The fast localized scan [2] enables scalable… read more… J R Stat Soc (Ser B). 2011;to appear. *Skyler Speakman E-mail: skylerspeakman@gmail.com (page number not for citation purpose) Fig. 1. … -
Fast subset scan for multivariate spatial biosurveillance
Content Type: Abstract
The spatial scan statistic detects significant spatial clusters of disease by maximizing a likelihood ratio statistic over a large set of spatial regions. Several recent approaches have extended spatial scan to multiple data streams.
