This article demonstrated an easily applicable method for measuring the similarity between a pair of point patterns, which applies to spatial or temporal data sets. Such a measurement was performed using similarity-based pattern analysis as an alternative to conventional approaches, which typically utilize straightforward point-to-point matching. Using our approach, in each point data set, two geometric features (i.e., the distance and angle from the centroid) were calculated and represented as probability density functions (PDFs). The PDF similarity of each geometric feature was measured using nine metrics, with values ranging from zero (very contrasting) to one (exactly the same). The overall similarity was defined as the average of the distance and angle similarities. In terms of sensibility, the method was shown to be capable of measuring, at a human visual sensing level, two pairs of hypothetical patterns, presenting reasonable results. Meanwhile, in terms of the method′s sensitivity to both spatial and temporal displacements from the hypothetical origin, the method is also capable of consistently measuring the similarity of spatial and temporal patterns. The application of the method to assess both spatial and temporal pattern similarities between two deforestation data sets with different resolutions was also discussed. |
