In this research, a flexibly shaped sparial scan
is an approach for detecting geogqbical hotspots @at allow flmiility m shape. This scao
imposes an arbitrary shaped w i d o w with rllaximum le&ctuster K. Tbe test statistic is
on Likelihood ratio test lmder Poisson asnrmptioa and evaluated us& Monte Carlo

The object of this rescach is Bogor, which is divided into 493 dhges.


P As the resub, 34 significant hotspots are deteded among 91 hotrpot candidates at significance
&el a = 0.05 and K = 15. Tbese significant poverty hotspots consist of 199 vdlags in Bogor.
is w geqpphical overtap among all rcpoTted hotspots. The MLC that gaias the highst log
Belihood ratio, in povesty hotspots cnappmg, is concentrated in the western of Bogor.
