Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this research project, we constructed a probabilistic model to enable a flexible statistical analysis for data focusing on periodic phenomena such as angle and time. Specifically, we proposed a method for constructing circular distributions that can give flexible fitting to various circular data, a cylinder distribution that can model long-tailed for its linear part, and torus distributions that can be used with a low computational cost. Applications to seismic data and shared genes position data of the bacterial genomes show the tendency of big earthquakes and commonality of bacteria which has the same ancestor, respectively,

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

動物の移動方向や風向などの周期性のある現象に関するデータは、正規分布やポアソン分布のように直線上で定義される確率分布ではなく、円周上で定義される確率分布を用いて解析を行う必要がある。生態・環境科学分野ではこのようなデータが多くみられる。本研究で提案した柔軟かつ情報損失の少ない円周上分布、トーラス上分布、シリンダー上分布を用いることで、適切な生態動向推定や自然環境予測が可能となることが期待される。
