概要	Bayesian Hot Spot Analysis identifies spatial clusters of elevated risk or intensity by combining observed data with prior beliefs about spatial structure. It uses Bayesian smoothing — pooling information across neighboring areas — to stabilize estimates in small areas and then flags locations where the posterior probability of exceeding a risk threshold is high.	Bayesian Spatial Autocorrelation embeds spatial dependence directly into a Bayesian hierarchical model. A Conditional Autoregressive (CAR) prior encodes the expectation that neighboring areas are more similar than distant ones, and posterior inference is obtained via MCMC. This approach is especially valuable in disease mapping, ecology, and regional science, where small-area estimates need borrowing strength across neighbors.
