토지 이용 변화 예측 모형의 정확도 검정을 위한 통계량 연구

초록

This paper addresses the limitation of a map comparison metric entitled Figure of Merit through employing a simple land change model. The metric was originally designed to overcome limitations of other existing statistics, such as Kappa, when assessing predictive accuracy of land change models. A series of comparisons between null and predicted outcomes at multiple resolutions as well as a multi-resolution Figure of Merit analysis techniques of validation are compared for spatially segregated calibration and validation datasets. The Figure of Merit at the null resolution in this paper was 57%, although future research must be done to determine if this was simply a coincidence. A Figure of Merit greater than 50% would seem to represent a “Resolution of Merit” in that the Figure of Merit at that resolution becomes greater than the error. Thus, these two metrics should be used in tandem to assess predictive accuracy of a land change model.
