ChinaTemp

This data set consist of the intervals of observed temperatures (Celsius scale) in each of the four quarters, Q_1 to Q_4, of the years 1974 to 1988 in 60 chinese metereological stations; one outlier observation (YinChuan_1982) has been discarded. 
The 60 stations belong to different regions in China, which therefore define a partition of the 899 stations-year combinations.

datasets

interval data

Implements methodologies for modelling interval data, considering appropriate parameterizations of the variance-covariance matrix that take into account the intrinsic nature of interval data, and lead to five different possible configuration structures.
