Abstract
En 中文
Spatial interpolation, a fundamental spatial analysis method, predicts unsampled spatial data from the values of sampled points. Generally, the core of spatial interpolation is fitting spatial weights via spatial correlation. Traditional methods express spatial distances in a conventional Euclidean way and conduct relatively simple spatial weight calculation processes, limiting their ability to fit complex spatial nonlinear characteristics in multidimensional space. To tackle these problems, we developed a generalized spatial distance neural network (GSDNN) unit to generally and adaptively express spatial distances in complex feature space. By combining the spatial autoregressive neural network (SARNN) with the GSDNN unit, we constructed a generalized spatial autoregressive neural network (GSARNN) to perform spatial interpolation in three-dimensional space. The GSARNN model was examined and compared with traditional methods using two three-dimensional cases: a simulated case and a real Argo case. The experiment results demonstrated that exploiting the feature extraction ability of neural networks, the GSARNN achieved superior interpolation performance and was more adaptable than inverse distance weighted, ordinary Kriging, and SARNN methods.
