Conditional Autoregressions with Doubly Stochastic Weight Matrices
A conditional spatial autoregression (CAR) specifies dependence via a weight matrix. Employing a doubly stochastic weight matrix allows users to interpret the CAR prediction rule as a semiparametric prediction rule and as BLUP with smoothing in addition to other benefits. We examine standard and doubly stochastic weight matrices in the context of an illustrative data set to demonstrate feasibil...
متن کامل2SIV Estimation of A Dynamic Spatial Panel Data Model with Endogenous Spatial Weight Matrices
The spatial panel data model is a standard tool for analyzing data with both spatial correlation and dynamic dependences among economic units. Conventional estimation methods rely on the key assumption that the spatial weight matrix is strictly exogenous, which would likely be violated in some empirical applications where spatial weights are determined by economic factors. This paper studies th...
متن کاملSpatial Weight Matrices
Each nonnegative matrix, ( : , 1,.., ) ij W w i j n , is a possible spatial weight matrix summarizing spatial relations between n spatial units. Here each spatial weight, ij w , typically reflects the “spatial influence” of unit j on unit i . Following standard convention, we here exclude “self influence” by assuming that 0 ii w for all 1,.., i n (so that W has a zero diagonal). The fol...
متن کاملSpatial Weights: Constructing Weight-Compatible Exchange Matrices from Proximity Matrices
Exchange matrices represent spatial weights as symmetric probability distributions on pairs of regions, whose margins yield regional weights, generally well-specified and known in most contexts. This contribution proposes a mechanism for constructing exchange matrices, derived from quite general symmetric proximity matrices, in such a way that the margin of the exchange matrix coincides with th...
متن کاملMaximum Likelihood Estimation of Weight Matrices for Targeted Homology Search
Genome annotation relies to a large extent on the recognition of homologs to already known genes. The starting point for such protocols is a collection of known sequences from one or more species, from which a model is constructed – either automatically or manually – that encodes the defining features of a single gene or a gene family. The quality of these models eventually determines the succe...
