in a spatial graph. Second, we dene a neighborhood based on a time
series as a temporal neighborhood. In Figure 8.7b, (s
2
; t
1
) and (s
2
; t
3
) are the temporal
neighbors of (s
2
; t
2
) if t
1
, t
2
, and t
3
are consecutive time slots. In addition, we dene
a neighborhood based on both space and time series as a spatial–temporal neighbor-
hood. In Figure 8.7b, (s
1
; t
1
), (s
1
; t
2
), (s
1
; t
3
), (s
2
; t
1
), (s
2
; t
3
), (s
3
; t
1
), (s
3
; t
2
), and (s
3
; t
3
) are
the spatial–temporal neighbors of (s
2
; t
2
) if s
1
and s
3
are connected to s
2
in a spatial
graph and t
1
, t
2
, and t
3
are consecutive time slots.
