Functional Polycentricity: Examining Metropolitan Spatial Structure through the Connectivity of Urban Sub-centres (2012, methodology): “More formal approaches have utilised parametric methods where the outlying residuals of a monocentric regression model of employment density are used to mark subcentres (McDonald and Prather, 1994) or non-parametric methods, which make use of geographically weighted regression in order to allow for ”
Evolving subcenters: employment and population densities in Chicago, 1970–2020 (2003, methodology): “They define subcenters to be areas with large employment levels in rings where the estimated density function is rising rather than falling with distance from the CBD. Mu~niz et al. (2002) follow a similar approach, using estimated spline functions to identify density peaks.”
How Does Transportation Shape Intrametropolitan Growth? An Answer from the Regional Express Rail (2017, unknown): “Table 1 reports the number of jobs (Panel A) and inhabitants (Panel B) in the CBD, the identified subcenters and the remaining municipalities in 1968 and 2010.”

Urban spatial structure, suburbanization and transportation in Barcelona (2012, methodology): “To compute location variables, I consider the CBD and 7 subcenters 16See McMillen (2001), Redfearn (2009) and McMillen and Redfearn (2010) for details on the LWR procedure.”
The Impact of Mixed Land Use on Residential Property Values (2012, unknown): “21There is a large literature that employs nonparametric methods to identify subcenters (see among others Craig and Ng, 2001; McMillen, 2001; McMillen and Smith, 2003).”
Identifying Sub-centres Using Contiguity Matrices (2003, methodology): “Two approaches are used to identify sub-centres—the Giuliano and Small (1991) method and a hybrid of their approach and the McMillen (2001) method.”
