Abstract

We review recent developments related to inference for functions defined at spatial locations. We also consider time series of functions defined at irregularly distributed spatial points or on a grid. We focus on kriging, estimation of the functional mean and principal components, and significance testing, giving special attention to testing spatio-temporal separability in the context of functional data. We also highlight some ideas related to extreme value theory for spatially indexed functional time series.

Key words: Functional data; Spatial statistics

Resumen

Revisamos desarrollos recientes relacionados con la inferencia de funciones definidas en locaciones espaciales. También consideramos series de tiempo funcionales definidas en puntos espaciales irregularmente distribuidos o en una cuadrícula. Nos centramos en el kriging, la estimación de la media funcional y de los componentes principales, y en la prueba de significancia, dando especial atención a pruebas de separabilidad de espacio-tiempo en el contexto de datos funcionales. También destacamos algunas ideas relaciones con la teoría de valores extremos para series de tiempo funcionales indexadas en el espacio.

Palabras clave: Datos funcionales; Estadística espacial
