Selecting the Kth nearest-neighbour for clutter removal in spatial point processes through segmented regression models
2023
We consider the problem of feature detection, in the presence of clutter in spatial point processes. A previous study addresses the issue of the selection of the best nearest neighbour for clutter removal. We outline a simple workflow to automatically estimate the number of nearest neighbours by means of segmented regression models applied to an entropy measure of cluster separation. The method is suitable for a feature with clutter as two superimposed Poisson processes on any twodimensional space, including linear networks. We present simulations to illustrate the method and an application to the problem of seismic fault detection.
Classification in point patterns on linear networks under clutter
2022
The problem of features detection under present of clutter in point process on linear networks establishes a methodological and computational challenge with multiple kind of applications as traffic accidents among other. Previous works related to the same topical but developed in more simpler geometries tackles the issue of the clutter removal through the distance of nearest-neighbour and show good results with high classification rates. We extend this procedure to the linear networks motivated by the classification of the traffic accidents on the road network of a city. Simulations demonstrate the performance of the method.
