Instrumental Variable Quantile Estimation of Spatial Autoregressive Models∗
We propose a spatial quantile autoregression (SQAR) model, which allows cross-sectional dependence among the responses, unknown heteroscedasticity in the disturbances, and heterogeneous impacts of covariates on different points (quantiles) of a response distribution. The instrumental variable quantile regression (IVQR) method of Chernozhukov and Hansen (2006) is generalized to allow the data to...
متن کاملEstimation of malaria incidence in northern Namibia in 2009 using Bayesian conditional-autoregressive spatial–temporal models☆
As malaria transmission declines, it becomes increasingly important to monitor changes in malaria incidence rather than prevalence. Here, a spatio-temporal model was used to identify constituencies with high malaria incidence to guide malaria control. Malaria cases were assembled across all age groups along with several environmental covariates. A Bayesian conditional-autoregressive model was u...
متن کاملEstimating Contaminated Limited Dependent Variable Models
Smith for helpful comments and to Richard Blundell for kindly making his data available. In 1imi ted dependent variable models the estimators obtained by maximising the normal likelihood function are generally inconsistent when the assumption of normality ls falseo Arabmazar and Schmidt (1982) have shown that the bias trom non-normality can be substantial when the degree of censoring (or trunca...
متن کاملGeneralized Maximum Entropy Estimation of Spatial Autoregressive Models
We formulate generalized maximum entropy estimators for the general linear model and the censored regression model when there is first order spatial autoregression in the dependent variable and residuals. Monte Carlo experiments are provided to compare the performance of spatial entropy estimators in small and medium sized samples relative to classical estimators. Finally, the estimators are ap...
متن کاملBayesian Mixtures of Autoregressive Models
In this paper we propose a class of time-domain models for analyzing possibly nonstationary time series. This class of models is formed as a mixture of time series models, whose mixing weights are a function of time. We consider specifically mixtures of autoregressive models with a common but unknown lag. To make the methodology work we show that it is necessary to first partition the data into...
