Outline of Final Research Achievements

A mathematical model that predicts land use change in depopulating cities is proposed by use of the spatial model enhanced by Bayesian statistical model. The model is a modified form of the intrinsic Gaussian CAR model with Bayesian scheme, and considers intensities of effects of urbanization in surrounding areas as random variables in a stochastic way. In the model the intensities of the effects are regarded to vary randomly depending on their places but, on the other hand, controlled by the precision value of the prior distribution. It enables us to estimate not only the intensities of the effect but also effects of other important factors more accurately than the ordinal regression model.
Furthermore, future land use changes are simulated by using this model and parameters obtained from the preceding calculations, and possible future rises of temperature caused by the spread of urbanizations are estimated.
