Understanding the impact of spatial patterns and processing features on health is a key element in public health and epidemiology fields. This thesis investigates these fundamental tasks using two approaches: high dimensional Kolmogorov-Zurbenko Adaptive smoothing and spatial boundary identification by rolling variation algorithm.
