Most of these methods deal with case-event or individual-level data and can only detect clusters with shape close to circles. In this study, adapting Choynowski`s (1959) idea, a simulation-based approach is proposed to detect non-circular clusters with aggregate or group-level data. The proposed cluster detection method will be used to compare with a frequently used method: Nagarwalla’s Spatial Scan Statistic. Computer simulation is used to illustrate the validity, with respect to Type-I and Type-II errors, of the proposed approach. In addition, the cancer mortality data in Taiwan area are also used as a demonstration of the proposed test. |
