A love story, maybe, a gritty love story (minus the sex, there's no call for that in this kind of saga) emerges at the end of the process. And, of course, this is it.

Methods to monitor geographic patterns have received growing interest in recent years. Using an integrated approach, Statistical Detection and Monitoring of Geographic Clusters provides a thorough review of methods for cluster detection, organized according to the different types of hypotheses that can be investigated using these t

Offers a review of methods for cluster detection, organized according to the different types of hypotheses that can be investigated using these techniques. This book presents various methods that allow for detection of emergent geographic clusters. It includes actual datasets and simplified examples to illustrate key concepts.
