Regionalization refers to the process of partitioning geographic space into regions that are internally similar yet distinct from each other. This process is fundamental for understanding complex spatial relationships and how areas interact with each other. Spatial networks provide a rich source of data (e.g., flows of people, goods or information) that can be used to generate regions. How to extract useful information from the spatial networks for better regionalization has been a longstanding topic of interest, and methods such as community detection and node clustering have been well studied. However, nowadays, many regionalization tasks remain confined to domain-specific datasets and traditional methods, while the rapid growth of the big data era and Artificial Intelligence (AI) methods has created more opportunities for improved regionalization. This dissertation focuses on how to utilize mobility-based spatial networks and Geospatial Artificial Intelligence (GeoAI) methods for better regionalization. This dissertation will start by demonstrating how spatial networks can be applied to delineate Rational Service Areas (RSAs) in the public health domain. Existing RSAs are usually developed based on the local knowledge of public health needs and are created through time-intensive manual work by health service officials. In this dissertation, a data-driven and spatially constrained community detection method based on aggregated human mobility flow data is proposed to automate the process of establishing the statewide RSAs in GIS software. The proposed method outperforms other baselines in the multiple metrics and shows the promising potential of mobility-based regionalization in the public health domain. Then, the dissertation improves the existing community detection method by proposing GeoAI-enhanced models based on Graph Convolutional Networks and Graph Attention Networks. The methods identify regions by considering attribute similarity, geographic adjacency and spatial interactions. The methods are compared with multiple baselines and perform best when one wants to maximize node attribute similarity and spatial interaction intensity simultaneously within the communities. It is applied to the shortage area delineation problem in public health and demonstrates its promise in solving regionalization problems. Lastly, the dissertation improves the interpretability of the proposed GeoAI methods. Most of the AI methods are considered black boxes, meaning that humans cannot understand the internal process, leading to low transparency and trustworthiness of the AI-generated results. However, geographic research often requires an explanation and discussion of why certain predictions are generated to understand the processes underlying the observed data. To promote the application of GeoAI methods to regionalization, the dissertation applies an explainable AI model to the proposed GeoAI-based community detection method. The explanations provide important node features and subgraph structures that contribute the most to each prediction. By examining individual and aggregated explanations, community activity spaces are compared, and potential regional patterns are discovered to support the reasoning of regionalization results. In summary, this dissertation aims to provide valuable insights into how human mobility data and GeoAI methods can be applied to regionalization tasks in spatial networks. It proposes a framework for automatic area delineation using mobility data that can be expanded to other use cases. Then, it improves the existing regionalization methods by introducing GeoAI models to combine node attributes and edge connections. Thirdly, it provides insights into how GeoAI models can be interpreted and explained to better understand the underlying geographic phenomena.

This book is the second in a two-volume series that introduces the field of spatial data science. It moves beyond pure data exploration to the organization of observations into meaningful groups, i.e., spatial clustering. This constitutes an important component of so-called unsupervised learning, a major aspect of modern machine learning. The distinctive aspects of the book are both to explore ways to spatialize classic clustering methods through linked maps and graphs, as well as the explicit introduction of spatial contiguity constraints into clustering algorithms. Leveraging a large number of real-world empirical illustrations, readers will gain an understanding of the main concepts and techniques and their relative advantages and disadvantages. The book also constitutes the definitive user’s guide for these methods as implemented in the GeoDa open source software for spatial analysis. It is organized into three major parts, dealing with dimension reduction (principal components, multidimensional scaling, stochastic network embedding), classic clustering methods (hierarchical clustering, k-means, k-medians, k-medoids and spectral clustering), and spatially constrained clustering methods (both hierarchical and partitioning). It closes with an assessment of spatial and non-spatial cluster properties. The book is intended for readers interested in going beyond simple mapping of geographical data to gain insight into interesting patterns as expressed in spatial clusters of observations. Familiarity with the material in Volume 1 is assumed, especially the analysis of local spatial autocorrelation and the full range of visualization methods. Luc Anselin is the Founding Director of the Center for Spatial Data Science at the University of Chicago, where he is also Stein-Freiler Distinguished Service Professor of Sociology and the College, as well as a member of the Committee on Data Science. He is the creator of the GeoDa software and an active contributor to the PySAL Python open-source software library for spatial analysis. He has written widely on topics dealing with the methodology of spatial data analysis, including his classic 1988 text on Spatial Econometrics. His work has been recognized by many awards, such as his election to the U.S. National Academy of Science and the American Academy of Arts and Science.

Starting around the late 1950s, several research communities began relating the geometry of graphs to stochastic processes on these graphs. This book, twenty years in the making, ties together research in the field, encompassing work on percolation, isoperimetric inequalities, eigenvalues, transition probabilities, and random walks. Written by two leading researchers, the text emphasizes intuition, while giving complete proofs and more than 850 exercises. Many recent developments, in which the authors have played a leading role, are discussed, including percolation on trees and Cayley graphs, uniform spanning forests, the mass-transport technique, and connections on random walks on graphs to embedding in Hilbert space. This state-of-the-art account of probability on networks will be indispensable for graduate students and researchers alike.
