摘要

In this thesis several issues of spatial prediction are studied. The first part of the thesis concerns prediction variance estimation. In practice rarely (if ever) is the spatial covariance known. Often, prediction is performed after estimated spatial covariance parameters are plugged into the spatial prediction equation. The estimated spatial association parameters are also plugged into the prediction variance of the spatial predictor. However, simply plugging spatial covariance parameter estimates into the prediction variance of the spatial predictor does not take into account the uncertainty in the true values of the spatial covariance parameters. As a result, the plug in prediction variance estimate will underestimate the true prediction variance of the estimated spatial predictor, especially for small datasets. We propose a different way to express the prediction variance of the estimated spatial predictor. Based on this expression, we propose a new estimator of the prediction variance of the estimated spatial predictor using parametric bootstrapping. Our new estimator is compared to three other prediction variance estimators. We confirm that the plug-in prediction variance estimator often underestimates the true prediction variance of the estimated spatial predictor. Our new prediction variance estimator sometimes performs best among the four prediction variance estimators compared.;The prediction method known as kriging requires expensive computation to invert the spatial covariance matrix. The dissertation concentrates in its second part on computationally efficient algorithms for spatial prediction using massive datasets. A recent procedure known as Fixed Rank Kriging is reviewed. The method is much faster than kriging and is easily implemented without assuming stationarity. The model requires the estimation of a matrix which must be positive definite. We present a result that shows when a matrix subtraction of a given form will give a positive definite matrix. Motivated by this result and some simulations, we present an iterative Fixed Rank Kriging algorithm that ensures positive definiteness of the matrix required for prediction.;In the last part of the thesis we implement the modified Fixed Rank Kriging procedure to predict missing observations for very large regions of ocean color. We compares the predictions to those made by other well known methods of spatial prediction.
