Ce workshop organisé sur une journée était consacré aux modèles spatio et spatio temporels. Six chercheurs étrangers de renommée internationale dans le domaine, ont été invités : N. Cressie, M. Genton, C. Glasbey, V. Isham, S. Richardson, H. Rue. Le thème plus précis du workshop était sur la modélisation hiérarchique à l'aide de processus latents. Les exposés ont abordé aussi bien les problèmes théoriques que les aspects méthodologiques, avec applications à des données réelles. Les supports de présentation sont disponibles sur l'Espace pédagogique interactif (http://epi.univ-paris1.fr/samos-workshop-spatial-statistic).

    01 - Predicting spatial exceedance regions - Noël Cressie

    In geostatistics, a common problem is to predict a spatial exceedance and its exceedance region. This is scientifically important since unusual events tend to strongly impact the environment. Here, we use classes of loss functions based on image metrics (e.g., Baddeley's loss function) to predict the spatial-exceedance region. We then propose a joint loss to predict a spatial quantile and its exceedance region. The optimal predictor is obtained by minimizing the posterior expected loss given the process parameters, which we achieve by simulated annealing. Various predictors are compared through simulation. This methodology is applied to a spatial dataset of temperature change over the Americas. This research is joint with Jian Zhang and Peter Craigmile. Noel Cressie.

    03 - Modelling and testing properties of space-time covariance functions - Marc Genton

    Modeling space-time data often relies on parametric covariance models and various assumptions such as full symmetry and separability. These assumptions are important because they simplify the structure of the model and its inference, and ease the possibly extensive computational burden associated with spacetime data sets. We review various space-time covariance models and propose a unified framework for testing a variety of assumptions commonly made for covariance functions of stationary spatio-temporal random fields. The methodology is based on the asymptotic normality of space-time covariance estimators. We focus on tests for full symmetry and separability, but our framework naturally covers testing for isotropy, TaylorÂ's hypothesis, and the structure of cross-covariances. The proposed test successfully detects the asymmetric and nonseparable features in two sets of wind speed data. We perform simulation experiments to evaluate our test and conclude that our method is reliable and powerful for assessing common assumptions on space-time covariance functions. Marc G. Genton.

    05 - Spatio-temporal weather models - Chris Glasbey

    We develop contrasting spatio-temporal models for two weather variables: solar radiation and rainfall. For solar radiation the aim is to assess the performance of area networks of photo-voltaic cells. Although radiation measured at a sufficiently fine temporal scale has a bimodal marginal distribution (Glasbey, 2001), averages of 10-minute or longer duration can be transformed to be approximately Gaussian, and we fit a spatio-temporal auto-regressive moving average (STARMA) process (Glasbey and Allcroft, 2007). For rainfall, the aim is to disaggregate to a finer spatial scale than that observed. To overcome the difficulty that the marginal distribution of hourly rainfall has a singularity at zero and so is highly non-Gaussian, we apply a monotonic transformation. This defines a latent Gaussian variable, with zero rainfall corresponding to censored values below a threshold, which we model using a spatio-temporal Gaussian Markov random field (Allcroft and Glasbey, 2003). For both models, computations are simplified by approximating space by a torus and using Fourier transforms. Allcroft, D.J. and Glasbey, C.A. (2003).

    07 - Space-time models for soil moisture dynamics - Valérie Isham

    Soil moisture provides the physical link between soil, climate and vegetation. It increases via the infiltration of rainfall and decreases through evapotranspiration, run-off and leakage, all these effects being dependent on the existing soil moisture level. During wet periods, soil moisture tends largely to be driven by the topography, while evapotranspiration has more influence in dry periods. In this talk, I will describe models for soil moisture dynamics in which marked Poisson processes are used to model the temporal process of rainfall input to the soil moisture dynamics, first at a fixed location and then over a spatial region. In these models, precipitation input is instantaneous so that, in the spatial-temporal version, rain storms have a spatial extent but no temporal duration. In a generalisation, storms are allowed to have both spatial and temporal extents. Losses due to evapotranspiration depend on vegetation cover and the models allow for variable, and possibly random, vegetation processes. In the spatial-temporal models, random-radius circular tree canopies are assumed, located in a homogeneous Poisson process over the region. Under arid/semi-arid conditions, many transient and equilibrium properties of these models can be determined analytically and used for comparison with data on soil moisture dynamics.
