Spatio-temporal dynamics of European innovation : an exploratory approach via multivariate functional data cluster analysis
Rhoden, Imke; Weller, Daniel; Voit, Ann-Katrin - 2021
We apply a functional data approach for mixture model-based multivariate innovation clustering to identify different … regional innovation portfolios in Europe. Innovation concentration is considered as pattern of specialization among innovation … types. We examine patent registration data and combine them with other innovation and economic data across 225 regions, 13 …

Clustering dynamics and persistence for financial multivariate panel data
João, Igor Custodio; Lucas, André; Schaumburg, Julia - 2021
We introduce a new method for dynamic clustering of panel data with dynamics for cluster location and shape, cluster composition, and for the number of clusters. Whereas current techniques typically result in (economically) too many switches, our method results in economically more meaningful...

Cities and spatial interactions in West Africa : a clustering analysis of the local interactions of urban agglomerations
Curiel, Rafael Prieto; Heinrigs, Philipp; Heo, Inhoi - 2017
Over the past 60 years, urbanisation and cities have fundamentally transformed the social, economic and political geography of West Africa. The number of people living in cities increased from 5 million in 1950 to 133 million in 2010. During the same period, the number of towns and cities with...

A model-based clustering approach for analyzing energy-related financial literacy and its determinants
Kumar, Nilkanth - 2019 - Last revision: February 1, 2019
Recent research highlights the role of consumer's energy-related financial literacy in adoption of energy efficient household appliances in order to reduce the energy-efficiency gap within the household sector. The computation of an indicator for such a literacy measure has followed a somewhat...

Dynamic nonparametric clustering of multivariate panel data
João, Igor Custodio; Lucas, André; Schaumburg, Julia; … - 2023
We introduce a new dynamic clustering method for multivariate panel data char- acterized by time-variation in cluster locations and shapes, cluster compositions, and, possibly, the number of clusters. To avoid overly frequent cluster switching (flickering), we extend standard cross-sectional...

Internal structures and external connectedness : towards a typology of French clusters
Hussler, Caroline; Muller, Paul; Rondé, Patrick - 2015
In this explorative study, we adopt a knowledge-centred perspective on clusters and investigate whether clusters' internal structure explains clusters' external (knowledge) collaborative strategies. All in all, the main analytical issue underlying this paper is the following: do internal...
