（The  research  direction  is  the  spatio-temporal  data  analysis  and  its  application  in geography and environment, e.g., applied mathematics and statistics focusing on time series analysis and the application in analysis of the geographical and environmental data from the interdisciplinary perspective. These research problems stem from the real-life problems and important in both theory and application. Particularly, my recent interests are in applying the developed methods to solve the important real-life problems. I have established stable and long-term collaboration with many institutions with well-built national and international reputation.  

I plan to build a research team with interdisciplinary background, for example in mathematics, statistics or others focusing on quantitative analysis.）

代表性工作（Selected Papers）：

1. In the pipeline.

2. Feng  Chen, Yu  Zhou*  and  Yee  Leung,  2025, Testing non-stationarity of  spatial relationships under the multiscale effects. 提出了一种基于残差重采样方法在考虑多尺度效应的情况下对空间关系的非平稳性进行检验的方法，解决了空间分析中的一个核心难点问题。（We propose a new residual-based bootstrap test specifically designed to evaluate the non-stationarity of MGWR coefficients while explicitly accounting for multiscale effects to address one of the core methodological challenges in spatial analysis: how to rigorously test the non-stationarity  of  spatial  relationships  when  geographical  processes  operate  at multiple spatial scales.）

3. Ewan T. Phillips, Marc Höll, Holger Kantz and Yu Zhou*, 2023, Trend analysis in the presence of short- and long-range correlations with application to regional warming. 通过解析推导系统探讨了相关性对趋势估计的影响，并给出了一个统一的公式可以显示刻画长程短程相关性之间的项目作用以及涵盖之前的所有结果。（We obtain an unified formula to systematically decipher the effect of autocorrelation on trend  detection  via  analytically  derivation.  Practically,  this  formula  can  explicitly describe the interaction between long-rang and short-rang correlations and includes all existing results.）

4. Yu Zhou, Yee Leung* and Wen-Bin Zhang, 2021, A location-and-form-based distance for geographical analysis. 强调了几何形态在空间分析中的重要性，并提出了一个可以考虑几何形态效应的组合距离，初步建立了综合考虑几何形态的地理空间分析的一般性框架。（We highlight the importance of the effect of form of geographical objects in analysis and accordingly develop a combined distance to comprehensively consider this effect, based  on  which  a  general  analytical  framework  for  geographical  analysis  with consideration of the form effect has been initialized.）

5. Marc Höll, Holger Kantz and Yu Zhou*, 2016, Detrended fluctuation analysis and the difference between external drifts and intrinsic diffusionlike nonstationarity.

通过解析推导首次揭示了去趋势这一关键步骤在非平稳时间序列分析中的一个经典方法，即去趋势涨落分析（detrended fluctuation analysis，DFA），中的关键作用。基于此，进一步提出了DFA的工作原理。（We reveal via analytical derivation the critical role of the detrending step in detrended fluctuation analysis [DFA], which is one of the most popular methods in long-range correlation analysis of non-stationary time series. On the basis of this revealed role, we further propose the working principle of DFA.）
