GME Estimation of Spatial Structural Equations Models
نویسندگان
چکیده
The objective of this paper is to develop a GME formulation for the class of spatial structural equations models (S-SEM) into a panel data framework. In this respect, two innovatory aspects are introduced: (i) the formalization of the GME estimation approach of SEM to allow for spatial heterogeneity and spatial dependence (spatially sampled data); (ii) the extension of the methodology panel data.

Parameter Estimation in Spatial Generalized Linear Mixed Models with Skew Gaussian Random Effects using Laplace Approximation
Spatial generalized linear mixed models are used commonly for modelling non-Gaussian discrete spatial responses. We present an algorithm for parameter estimation of the models using Laplace approximation of likelihood function. In these models, the spatial correlation structure of data is carried out by random effects or latent variables. In most spatial analysis, it is assumed that rando...
متن کاملMaximum entropy estimation in economic models with linear inequality restrictions
In this paper, we use maximum entropy to estimate the parameters in an economic model. We demonstrate the use of the generalized maximum entropy (GME) estimator, describe how to specify the GME parameter support matrix, and examine the sensitivity of GME estimates to the parameter and error bounds. We impose binding inequality restrictions through the GME parameter support matrix and develop a ...
متن کاملA comparison of algorithms for maximum likelihood estimation of Spatial GLM models
In spatial generalized linear mixed models, spatial correlation is assumed by adding normal latent variables to the model. In these models because of the non-Gaussian spatial response and the presence of latent variables the likelihood function cannot usually be given in a closed form, thus the maximum likelihood approach is very challenging. The main purpose of this paper is to introduce two n...
متن کاملBayesian Inference for Spatial Beta Generalized Linear Mixed Models
In some applications, the response variable assumes values in the unit interval. The standard linear regression model is not appropriate for modelling this type of data because the normality assumption is not met. Alternatively, the beta regression model has been introduced to analyze such observations. A beta distribution represents a flexible density family on (0, 1) interval that covers symm...
متن کاملRobust Long-Term Aerial Video Mosaicking by Weighted Feature-Based Global Motion Estimation
Aerial video images can be stitched together into a common panoramic image. For that, the global motion between images can be estimated by detecting Harris corner features which are linked to correspondences by a feature tracker. Assuming a planar ground, a homography can be estimated after an appropriate outlier removal. Since Harris features tend to occur clustered at highly structured 3D obj...
