Spatio-temporal clustering of drug addiction in Malaysia / Aida Melissa Mohd Shukri and Noor Aisyah Rashif

Drug addiction is a serious concern which causes a great impact to the society, economy and country. Thus, there is a need to study drug addiction phenomena and trend for both spatial and temporal scales besides clustering the area of drug addicts’ risk. We mapped spatio-temporal heterogeneity drug...
