Locally Adaptive Spatial Smoothing Using Conditional Auto-Regressive Models
Summary Conditional auto-regressive models are commonly used to capture spatial cor relation in areal unit data, as part of a hierarchical Bayesian model. The spatial correlation structure that is induced by these models is determined by geographical adjacency, but this is too simplistic for some real data sets, which can …
