Book Spatial and Spatiotemporal Econometrics

Download or read book Spatial and Spatiotemporal Econometrics written by J.P. LeSage and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2004-12-30 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume focuses on econometric models that confront estimation and inference issues occurring when sample data exhibit spatial or spatiotemporal dependence. This can arise when decisions or transactions of economic agents are related to the behaviour of nearby agents. Dependence of one observation on neighbouring observations violates the typical assumption of independence made in regression analysis. Contributions to this volume by leading experts in the field of spatial econometrics provide details regarding estimation and inference based on a variety of econometric methods including, maximum likelihood, Bayesian and hierarchical Bayes, instrumental variables, generalized method of moments, maximum entropy, non-parametric and spatiotemporal. An overview of spatial econometric models and methods is provided that places contributions to this volume in the context of existing literature. New methods for estimation and inference are introduced in this volume and Monte Carlo comparisons of existing methods are described. In addition to topics involving estimation and inference, approaches to model comparison and selection are set forth along with new tests for spatial dependence and functional form. These methods are applied to a variety of economic problems including: hedonic real estate pricing, agricultural harvests and disaster payments, voting behaviour, identification of edge cities, and regional labour markets. The volume is supported by a web site containing data sets and software to implement many of the methods described by contributors to this volume.

Book Spatial Econometrics  Methods and Models

Download or read book Spatial Econometrics Methods and Models written by L. Anselin and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spatial econometrics deals with spatial dependence and spatial heterogeneity, critical aspects of the data used by regional scientists. These characteristics may cause standard econometric techniques to become inappropriate. In this book, I combine several recent research results to construct a comprehensive approach to the incorporation of spatial effects in econometrics. My primary focus is to demonstrate how these spatial effects can be considered as special cases of general frameworks in standard econometrics, and to outline how they necessitate a separate set of methods and techniques, encompassed within the field of spatial econometrics. My viewpoint differs from that taken in the discussion of spatial autocorrelation in spatial statistics - e.g., most recently by Cliff and Ord (1981) and Upton and Fingleton (1985) - in that I am mostly concerned with the relevance of spatial effects on model specification, estimation and other inference, in what I caIl a model-driven approach, as opposed to a data-driven approach in spatial statistics. I attempt to combine a rigorous econometric perspective with a comprehensive treatment of methodological issues in spatial analysis.

Book Spatial Econometrics

Download or read book Spatial Econometrics written by Giuseppe Arbia and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-11-14 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spatial Econometrics is a rapidly evolving field born from the joint efforts of economists, statisticians, econometricians and regional scientists. The book provides the reader with a broad view of the topic by including both methodological and application papers. Indeed the application papers relate to a number of diverse scientific fields ranging from hedonic models of house pricing to demography, from health care to regional economics, from the analysis of R&D spillovers to the study of retail market spatial characteristics. Particular emphasis is given to regional economic applications of spatial econometrics methods with a number of contributions specifically focused on the spatial concentration of economic activities and agglomeration, regional paths of economic growth, regional convergence of income and productivity and the evolution of regional employment. Most of the papers appearing in this book were solicited from the International Workshop on Spatial Econometrics and Statistics held in Rome (Italy) in 2006.

Book Regression Modelling wih Spatial and Spatial Temporal Data

Download or read book Regression Modelling wih Spatial and Spatial Temporal Data written by Robert P. Haining and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-01-27 with total page 527 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modelling Spatial and Spatial-Temporal Data: A Bayesian Approach is aimed at statisticians and quantitative social, economic and public health students and researchers who work with spatial and spatial-temporal data. It assumes a grounding in statistical theory up to the standard linear regression model. The book compares both hierarchical and spatial econometric modelling, providing both a reference and a teaching text with exercises in each chapter. The book provides a fully Bayesian, self-contained, treatment of the underlying statistical theory, with chapters dedicated to substantive applications. The book includes WinBUGS code and R code and all datasets are available online. Part I covers fundamental issues arising when modelling spatial and spatial-temporal data. Part II focuses on modelling cross-sectional spatial data and begins by describing exploratory methods that help guide the modelling process. There are then two theoretical chapters on Bayesian models and a chapter of applications. Two chapters follow on spatial econometric modelling, one describing different models, the other substantive applications. Part III discusses modelling spatial-temporal data, first introducing models for time series data. Exploratory methods for detecting different types of space-time interaction are presented followed by two chapters on the theory of space-time separable (without space-time interaction) and inseparable (with space-time interaction) models. An applications chapter includes: the evaluation of a policy intervention; analysing the temporal dynamics of crime hotspots; chronic disease surveillance; and testing for evidence of spatial spillovers in the spread of an infectious disease. A final chapter suggests some future directions and challenges.

Book Spatial Econometrics  Spatial Autoregressive Models

Download or read book Spatial Econometrics Spatial Autoregressive Models written by Lung-fei Lee and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2023-10-16 with total page 894 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the most recently developed book in Spatial Econometrics which cover important models and estimation methods. Its coverage is rather broad, and some of the topics covered have only been developed in the recent econometric literature in spatial econometrics.The book summarizes our devoted efforts on spatial econometrics that represent joint contributions with former PhD advisees from the Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio, USA.The coverage is comprehensive and there are a total of sixteen chapters from basic statistics and statistical theory of linear-quadratic forms, law of large numbers (LLN) and central limit theory (CLT) on martingales to nonlinear spatial mixing and spatial near-epoch dependence theories, which can justify the statistic inferences for various spatial models and their estimation. New estimation and testing approaches in empirical likelihood and general empirical likelihood, and Bootstrapping are presented. Model selection is also discussed in this book. In addition to the popular spatial autoregressive models, there are chapters on multivariate SAR models, simultaneous SAR models, and panel dynamic spatial models. Recent econometric developments on intertemporal spatial models with rational expectations and flows data in trade theory will also be included. In terms of statistics, classical estimation, testing and inference are the main concerns, and we provide classical inference for the justification of Bayesian simulation approaches.

Book Non standard Spatial Statistics and Spatial Econometrics

Download or read book Non standard Spatial Statistics and Spatial Econometrics written by Daniel A. Griffith and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-01-11 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite spatial statistics and spatial econometrics both being recent sprouts of the general tree "spatial analysis with measurement"—some may remember the debate after WWII about "theory without measurement" versus "measurement without theory"—several general themes have emerged in the pertaining literature. But exploring selected other fields of possible interest is tantalizing, and this is what the authors intend to report here, hoping that they will suscitate interest in the methodologies exposed and possible further applications of these methodologies. The authors hope that reactions about their publication will ensue, and they would be grateful to reader(s) motivated by some of the research efforts exposed hereafter letting them know about these experiences.
