考虑到在不同地区,SARS-CoV-2和alpha变种的相对传播能力不同,我们使用了基于动态时间修正(Dynamic Time Warping,DTW)方法7的k-means聚类算法对英格兰的所有地区、苏格兰、威尔士和北爱尔兰从2020-03-31到2021-02-28这段时间的SARS-CoV-2和alpha变种的相对传播能力进行了考察,方法如下:
所有的地图均来自来自于英国国家统计署9,并通过 Open Government Licence v3.0 协议辅助 GIS 软件 QGIS 3.2210 绘制,其中地图投影方法为横轴墨卡托投影11,坐标系统为 EPSG:27700 - OSGB 1936 / British National Grid。
