1965年，Joseph Naus发表了他现在经典的关于空间扫描统计的论文，题为“二维随机点的聚类”。空间扫描统计学是一个重要的统计理论，它在考古学、天文学、脑成像、犯罪学、人口学、疾病爆发的早期检测、生态学、流行病学、林业、地质学、历史学、心理学和兽医学等领域有着广泛的应用。在本章中，我们将对这一广泛的应用进行概述。
In 1965, Joseph Naus published his now classical paper on spatial scan statistics, entitled 'Clustering of random points in two dimensions'. This paper set in motion an important statistical theory of spatial scan statistics and an avalanche of spatial scan statistics applications in a wide variety of fields, including archaeology, astronomy, brain imaging, criminology, demography, early detection of disease outbreaks, ecology, epidemiology, forestry, geology, history, psychology and veterinary medicine. In this chapter, we survey this wide variety of applications.
