The spatial structure of a forest stand is typically modeled by spatial point process models. Motivated by aerial forest inventories and forest dynamics in general, we propose a sequential spatial approach for modeling forest data. Such an approach is better justified than a static point process model in describing the long-term dependence among the spatial location of trees in a forest and the locations of detected trees in aerial forest inventories. Tree size can be used as a surrogate for the unknown tree age when determining the order in which trees have emerged or are observed on an aerial image. Sequential spatial point processes differ from spatial point processes in that the realizations are ordered sequences of spatial locations, thus allowing us to approximate the spatial dynamics of the phenomena under study. This feature is useful in interpreting the long-term dependence and spatial history of the locations of trees. For the application, we use a forest data set collected from the Kiihtelysvaara forest region in Eastern Finland.

Estimation of forest stand characteristics using individual tree detection, stochastic geometry and a sequential spatial point process model
Mehtätalo, Lauri; Yazigi, Adil; Kansanen, Kasper; Packalen, Petteri; Lähivaara, Timo; Maltamo, Matti; Myllymäki, Mari; Penttinen, Antti (Elsevier BV, 2022)Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) results in point-wise measurements of canopy height, which can further be used for Individual Tree Detection (ITD). However, ITD cannot find all trees because small trees can hide below larger ... -

Deducing self-interaction in eye movement data using sequential spatial point processes
Penttinen, Antti; Ylitalo, Anna-Kaisa (Elsevier BV, 2016)Eye movement data are outputs of an analyser tracking the gaze when a person is inspecting a scene. These kind of data are of increasing importance in scientific research as well as in applications, e.g. in marketing and ... -
Graphical model inference : Sequential Monte Carlo meets deterministic approximations
Lindsten, Fredrik; Helske, Jouni; Vihola, Matti (Neural Information Processing Systems Foundation, Inc., 2018)Approximate inference in probabilistic graphical models (PGMs) can be grouped into deterministic methods and Monte-Carlo-based methods. The former can often provide accurate and rapid inferences, but are typically ... -
