Multivariate Low-Rank State-Space Model with SPDE Approach for High-Dimensional Data

Jacopo Rodeschini, Lorenzo Tedesco, Francesco Finazzi +2

This paper proposes a novel low-rank approximation to the multivariate State-Space Model. The Stochastic Partial Differential Equation (SPDE) approach is applied component-wise to…

Scenario analysis of livestock-related PM2.5 pollution based on a new heteroskedastic spatiotemporal model

Jacopo Rodeschini, Alessandro Fassò, Francesco Finazzi +1

The air in the Lombardy Plain, Italy, is one of the most polluted in Europe due to limited atmosphere circulation and high emission levels. There is broad scientific consensus that…
