Methods to account for spatial autocorrelation in the analysis of species distributional data : a review

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe six different statistical approaches to infer correlates of species distributions, for both presence/absence (binary response) and species abundance data (poisson or normally distributed response), while accounting for spatial autocorrelation in model residuals: autocovariate regression; spatial eigenvector mapping; generalised least squares; (conditional and simultaneous) autoregressive models and generalised estimating equations.

Bag-of-visual-words and spatial extensions for land-use classification

TL;DR: This work considers a standard non-spatial representation in which the frequencies but not the locations of quantized image features are used to discriminate between classes analogous to how words are used for text document classification without regard to their order of occurrence, and considers two spatial extensions.

The distance decay of similarity in biogeography and ecology

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated how similarity changes with distance in biological communities, and explored whether growth form, dispersal type, rarity, or support affected the rate of distance decay in similarity.

Spatial Analysis A Guide for Ecologists

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a spatial analysis of complete point location data, including points, lines, and graphs, and a multiscale analysis of the data set, including spatial diversity analysis and spatial autocorrelation.

Numerical Methods for Scientists and Engineers

TL;DR: This inexpensive paperback edition of a groundbreaking classic is unique in its emphasis on the frequency approach and its use in the solution of problems.

Picture processing by computer

TL;DR: The field of picture processing by computer is reviewed from a technique-oriented standpoint and the processing of given pictures (as opposed to computer-synthesized pictures) is considered.
