<P>Illustrative Application</P>
<P></FONT><FONT face="Goudy Extra Bold CG ATT, arial, Arial, helvetica" size=3>In spatial-temporal applications one often wishes to know the nearby observations (say the <EM>m</EM> closest) subject to having these nearby observations also prior in time to the observation itself.Many of the ways of forming purely spatial neighbors such as those based upon Delaunay triangles do not function well in a spatial-temporal setting. However, partial ranking always works and can function with many more dimensions. Since the number of neighbors, <EM>m</EM>, is much smaller than the number of observations, <EM>n</EM>, the partial ranking algorithm saves a great deal of time relative to full ranking.For 7,000 observations, the partial algorithm saves almost a factor of 200 in terms of time over the full algorithm. Finding all the neighbors for 100,000 observations takes less than 8 minutes on a 600 Mhz PC, thus making spatial-temporal methods feasible for large data sets on desktop machines.
