GD - Geographical Detectors for Assessing Spatial Factors
Geographical detectors for measuring spatial stratified heterogeneity, as described in Jinfeng Wang (2010) <doi:10.1080/13658810802443457> and Jinfeng Wang (2016) <doi:10.1016/j.ecolind.2016.02.052>. Includes the optimal discretization of continuous data, four primary functions of geographical detectors, comparison of size effects of spatial unit and the visualizations of results. To use the package and to refer the descriptions of the package, methods and case datasets, please cite Yongze Song (2020) <doi:10.1080/15481603.2020.1760434>. The model has been applied in factor exploration of road performance and multi-scale spatial segmentation for network data, as described in Yongze Song (2018) <doi:10.3390/rs10111696> and Yongze Song (2020) <doi:10.1109/TITS.2020.3001193>, respectively.

geocomplexity - Mitigating Spatial Bias Through Geographical Complexity
The geographical complexity of individual variables can be characterized by the differences in local attribute variables, while the common geographical complexity of multiple variables can be represented by fluctuations in the similarity of vectors composed of multiple variables. In spatial regression tasks, the goodness of fit can be improved by incorporating a geographical complexity representation vector during modeling, using a geographical complexity-weighted spatial weight matrix, or employing local geographical complexity kernel density. Similarly, in spatial sampling tasks, samples can be selected more effectively by using a method that weights based on geographical complexity. By optimizing performance in spatial regression and spatial sampling tasks, the spatial bias of the model can be effectively reduced.

Understanding spatial association is essential for spatial statistical inference, including factor exploration and spatial prediction. Geographically optimal similarity (GOS) model is an effective method for spatial prediction, as described in Yongze Song (2022) <doi:10.1007/s11004-022-10036-8>. GOS was developed based on the geographical similarity principle, as described in Axing Zhu (2018) <doi:10.1080/19475683.2018.1534890>. GOS has advantages in more accurate spatial prediction using fewer samples and critically reduced prediction uncertainty.

Most of the current methods explore spatial association using observations at sample locations, which are defined as the first dimension of spatial association (FDA). The proposed concept of the second dimension of spatial association (SDA), as described in Yongze Song (2022) <doi:10.1016/j.jag.2022.102834>, aims to extract in-depth information about the geographical environment from locations outside sample locations for exploring spatial association.
