We consider non-stationary spatiotemporal modelling in an investigation into karst water levels in western Hungary. A strong feature of the data set is the extraction of large amounts of water from mines, which caused the water levels to reduce until about 1990 when the mining ceased, and then...

The area of marked-point processes is well developed but simulation is still a challenging problem when mark correlations are to be included. In this paper we propose the use of simulated annealing to incorporate the spatial mark correlation into the simulations of correlated marked-point...

One method of expressing coarse information about the shape of an object is to describe the shape by its landmarks, which can be taken as meaningful points on the outline of an object. We consider a situation in which we want to classify shapes into known populations based on their landmarks,...
