Clustergram published in the JOSS

  • 2023-09-04

The Python package Clustergram, developed in the early stage of this project, has now a software paper published in the Journal of Open Source Software (JOSS).

In 2021, we have developed a small package for visualisation and diagnostic of cluster analysis to help us understand various clustering solutions when delineating spatial signatures. You can see the original post here. The package was furhter improved over the years and was recently published in the JOSS.

On March 26th, Dani presented ongoing work at the AAG’23 conference. The talk was part of the Urban Analytics sessions co-organised between the Alan Turing Institute, Liverpool and Leeds, and focused on progress on using deep learning to predict spatial signatures from satellite imagery. As usual, you can find the slides in the talks page, both in HTML and PDF versions.
