Spatial variation in the association between neighbourhood deprivation and access to alcohol outlets (Conference or Workshop Item (Paper), 19th Annual Colloquium of the Spatial Information Research Centre (SIRC 2007: Does Space Matter?), 2007)Background: People who live in poor areas suffer higher mortality than those living in wealthier areas. People who live in poor areas in New Zealand have better access to alcohol and this association appears to vary ... -
(Conference or Workshop Item (Paper), 19th Annual Colloquium of the Spatial Information Research Centre (SIRC 2007: Does Space Matter?), 2007)The aim of this research was to determine the behavior and habitat selection of red deer (Cervus elaphus) hinds during the calving period, on an extensively managed rangeland in the high-country of New Zealand’s South ... -
(Conference or Workshop Item (Paper), 19th Annual Colloquium of the Spatial Information Research Centre (SIRC 2007: Does Space Matter?), 2007)This paper describes preliminary work analysing the stability of parameter coefficient estimates for Geographically-Weighted Regression (GWR). Based on a large dataset (35721 points) various random samplings of this data ... -
(Conference or Workshop Item (Paper), 17th Annual Colloquium of the Spatial Information Research Centre (SIRC 2005: A Spatio-temporal Workshop), 2005)Genetic drift is a well known and important force in directing the evolution of a population. The nature of genetic drift in panmictic populations is well understood, and new research is shedding light on the behaviour of ... -
(Conference or Workshop Item (Paper), 17th Annual Colloquium of the Spatial Information Research Centre (SIRC 2005: A Spatio-temporal Workshop), 2005)This paper uses an individual-based modelling approach to explore the effects of genetic tradeoff across a spatial gradient. Tradeoff is represented by the ability of an individual to live at higher environmental values - ... -
(Conference or Workshop Item (Paper), 17th Annual Colloquium of the Spatial Information Research Centre (SIRC 2005: A Spatio-temporal Workshop), 2005)The work reported here has been motivated by the need for a generic spatial model to overcome the limitations of Cellular Automata (CA) regarding the rigid square-cell structure and limited neighbourhood configurations. A ... -
(Conference or Workshop Item (Paper), 15th Annual Colloquium of the Spatial Information Research Centre (SIRC 2003: Land, Place and Space), 2003)In the past, researchers and model developers were restricted by their theoretical knowledge about the city and how it might be simulated as well as constrained by technological limitations. Nevertheless, the simulation ... -
(Conference or Workshop Item (Paper), 7th Asia-Pacific Conference on Complex Systems, 2004)Spatially-explicit, individual based models are used to explore the consequences of introducing two simple genetic tradeoff mechanisms to the gradient response of monoecious diploid individuals. A simple linear gradient ... -
(Discussion Paper, 2003)A modularised connectionist model, based on the Mixture of Experts (ME) algorithm for time series prediction, is introduced. A set of connectionist modules learn to be local experts over some commonly appearing states of ... -
(Conference or Workshop Item (Paper), 16th Annual Colloquium of the Spatial Information Research Centre (SIRC 2004: A Spatio-temporal Workshop), 2004)Urban structures exhibit complex patterns made of heterogeneous and irregular objects. Few works in the computational urban modelling literature have considered and examined the real geometric boundary of the city’s objects. ...
