In this paper, the authors point out to the necessity to extend the interdependence models beyond covariance modeling; they summarize some of the difficulties arising when attempting such extensions; and propose an approach to address these difficulties.
Abstract
In the field of geostatistics and spatial statistics, variogram based models have proved a very flexible and useful tool. However, such spatial models take into account only interdependencies between pairs of variables, mostly in the form of covariances. In the present work, we point out to the necessity to extend the interdependence models beyond covariance modeling; we summarize some of the difficulties arising when attempting such extensions; and propose an approach to address these difficulties. Im Bereich der Geostatistik und der raumlichen Statistik haben sich variogrammbasierte Modelle in der Praxis als ntuzlich und flexibel erwiesen um raumliche Zusammenhange zu beschreiben. Allerdings beziehen diese Modelle nur Wechselwirkungen zwischen Paaren von Variablen, vor allem in Form von Kovarianzen, mit ein. In dieser Dissertation weisen wir auf die Notwendigkeit hin, raumliche Modelle jenseits der Kovarianz Modellierung zu erweitern. Wir fassen einige Schwierigkeiten zusammen, die bei solch einer Erweiterung entstehen. Letztendlich prasentieren wir einen Ansatz, mit dem man diesen Schwierigkeiten behandeln kann.

Introduction to Geostatistics: Applications in Hydrogeology

TL;DR: In this paper, geostatistics has been integrated with hydrogeology to provide methods for quantifying uncertainty where estimation, interpolation, and extrapolation of hydrogeologic attributes are required between and beyond data locations.

The life, letters and labours of Francis Galton. Vol. I.; 1822-1853

Leonard Darwin
- 01 Oct 1914 - 
TL;DR: The Life, Letters and Labours of Francis Galton as discussed by the authors is the most complete account of Galton's life and work, with a detailed account of all the more important, not too technical, contributions made to science.

A new look at the statistical model identification

TL;DR: In this article, a new estimate minimum information theoretical criterion estimate (MAICE) is introduced for the purpose of statistical identification, which is free from the ambiguities inherent in the application of conventional hypothesis testing procedure.
