I have read a thesis where the author consider the matrix W=1-Dij/max(Dij) (Dij is the distance between site i and j) as a spatial weight matrix for spatial analysis purposes (e.g. Moran's I).
I am looking for other references dealing with spatial weighting matrix based on distance.
Functions such as 1/dij, 1-dij^2/max(dij^2).... can also be considered.
I am looking for applications using these kind of matrices or papers which provide some comparisons between these different options.
Thanks in advance,
Sincerely.
Stéphane DRAY
