Time-serial Spatial Association Data Mining and Its Applications
Zongyao Sha · Geospatial Information · 2008
Spatial association data mining is an important area of spatial data mining. This paper presented the basic concepts,principle and algorithm of time-serial spatial association data mining. By applying association relationship between spatial entities and item-time transmitting,the dependent datasets at difference times could be integrated into a new dataset (N-dataset) which contained the sequential information of the original datasets. Available association rule mining algorithms could be easily applied to the N-dataset to extract time-serial spatial association rules.
