A study by RamX utilizing logistic regression and Random Forest models found that latitude is the primary predictor of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) sightings, accounting for 84.18% of predictive power. This significant finding challenges traditional focuses on timing, redirecting research towards geographical factors influencing UAP activity and encouraging further exploration in diverse regions.

This study analyzes the correlation between UAP sightings and ethnic demographics using data from the National UFO Reporting Center and U.S. Census Bureau. It finds a notable relationship, particularly with Hispanic populations, while Native American correlations are nuanced. The study highlights the need for further research on socio-demographic influences affecting UAP sightings.
