Scale in multiscale geographically weighted regression (MGWR) directly impacts the accuracy of coefficient estimates and shapes the comprehensive evaluation of the intensity of spatially non-stationary relationships. Presently, MGWR primarily utilizes back-fitting for sequentially optimizing multiple scales (MGWR-BF). However, the set of individual optima obtained through sequential optimization may not necessarily represent the global optimum. To address this issue, this paper proposes a multi-scale cooperative optimization within MGWR (MGWR-GA) model. Specifically, MGWR-GA employs a genetic ...
