Distance measures available in distance

Description

Reads points coordinates and generates objects of class distance.matrix

Usage

distance(coord, region.id = NULL, output = TRUE,
type = c("NN", "distance", "inverse"),
measure = c("euclidean", "gcircle", "chebyshev", "braycur", "canberra"),
nn = 6, cutoff = FALSE, miles = TRUE, R = NULL, shape.name = NULL, region.id.name = NULL,
firstline = FALSE, file.name = NULL)
distance(coord, region.id = NULL, output = TRUE,
type = c("NN", "distance", "inverse"),
measure = c("euclidean", "gcircle", "chebyshev", "braycur", "canberra"),
nn = 6, cutoff = FALSE, miles = TRUE, R = NULL, shape.name = NULL, region.id.name = NULL,
firstline = FALSE, file.name = NULL)

Arguments

`coord`	a matrix with the (X,Y)-coordinates of the points. The first column can be the region.id variable giving the ordering of the observations
`region.id`	variable that defines the ordering of the observations
`output`	when TRUE (default) writes the object to a file
`type`	one of `("NN","distance","inverse")`. Nearest neighbors, distance or inverse distance
`measure`	one of `("euclidean","gcircle","chebyshev","braycur","canberra")`.The distance measure to be employed in the calculations (See Details)
`nn`	the number of nearest neighbors
`cutoff`	If type is `distance` or `inverse`. Assumes values 1, 2 or 3. When 1, the cutoff is set to the first quantile of the distribution of distances. When 2 to the median, and when 3 to the third quantile. Only observations with distance less than cutoff distance are neighbors.
`miles`	If TRUE (default), distances are in miles, otherwise in Km. (See `spDists` wcich returns km, and are converted if required)
`R`	deprecated, `spDists` uses an approximation to the WGS84 spheroid
`shape.name`	The name of the shape file. See Details
`region.id.name`	The name of the `region.id` variable. See Details
`firstline`	If `TRUE`, a first line is added to the output file. See Details
`file.name`	If `output`, the name of the output file. See Details

Details

Writes distance matrices

The object created is similar to the content of a 'GWT' file. The output file can be of any format. In particular, it could be a 'GWT' file. When firstline is TRUE, an header line is added to the 'GWT' file. The first element is simply a place holder, the second is the number of observations. The name of the shape file and of the id variable can be specified by the options shape.name and region.id.name respectively. The function performs a series of test on the region.id variable. If a region.id variable is not specified and coord only has two columns, a sequence from 1 to the number of observations is generated and used as identification variable. If region.id is specified and the first column of coord contains an id variable they should be the same.

The distance measures implemented in sphet are:

'euclidean': $\sqrt{\sum{(x_i - y_i)^2}}$
'chebyshev': $max(|x_i - y_i|)$
'braycur': $\frac{\sum{|x_i - y_i|}}{\sum{|x_i + y_i|}}$
'canberra': $\frac{\sum{|x_i - y_i|}}{\sum{|x_i| + |y_i|}}$
'gcircle': see spDists, which uses an approximation to the WGS84 spheroid.

Value

A matrix of three columns: from, to, and distance

GM estimation of a Cliff-Ord type model with Heteroskedastic Innovations

Description

Multi step GM/IV estimation of a linear Cliff and Ord -type of model of the form:

$y=\lambda W y + X \beta + u$

$u=\rho W u + e$

with

$e ~ N(0,\sigma^2_i)$

The model allows for spatial lag in the dependent variable and disturbances. The innovations in the disturbance process are assumed heteroskedastic of an unknown form.

Usage

gstslshet(formula, data = list(), listw, na.action = na.fail, 
           zero.policy = NULL, initial.value = 0.2, abs.tol = 1e-20, 
           rel.tol = 1e-10, eps = 1e-5, inverse = T, sarar = T)
gstslshet(formula, data = list(), listw, na.action = na.fail, 
           zero.policy = NULL, initial.value = 0.2, abs.tol = 1e-20, 
           rel.tol = 1e-10, eps = 1e-5, inverse = T, sarar = T)

Arguments

`formula`	a description of the model to be fit
`data`	an object of class data.frame. An optional data frame containing the variables in the model.
`listw`	an object of class `listw` created for example by `nb2listw`
`na.action`	a function which indicates what should happen when the data contains missing values. See lm for details.
`zero.policy`	See `lagsarlm` for details
`initial.value`	The initial value for $\rho$ . It can be either numeric (default is 0.2) or set to `'SAR'`, in which case the optimization will start from the estimated coefficient of a regression of the 2SLS residuals over their spatial lag (i.e. a spatial AR model)
`abs.tol`	Absolute tolerance. See nlminb for details.
`rel.tol`	Relative tolerance. See nlminb for details.
`eps`	Tolerance level for the approximation. See Details.
`inverse`	`TRUE`. If `FALSE`, an appoximated inverse is calculated. See Details.
`sarar`	`TRUE`. If `FALSE`, a spatial error model is estimated.

Details

The procedure consists of two steps alternating GM and IV estimators. Each step consists of sub-steps. In step one $\delta = [\beta',\lambda]'$ is estimated by 2SLS. The 2SLS residuals are first employed to obtain an initial (consistent but not efficient) GM estimator of $\rho$ and then a consistent and efficient estimator (involving the variance-covariance matrix of the limiting distribution of the normalized sample moments). In step two, the spatial Cochrane-Orcutt transformed model is estimated by 2SLS. This corresponds to a GS2SLS procedure. The GS2SLS residuals are used to obtain a consistent and efficient GM estimator for $\rho$ .

The initial value for the optimization in step 1b is taken to be initial.value. The initial value in step 1c is the optimal parameter of step 1b. Finally, the initial value for the optimization of step 2b is the optimal parameter of step 1c.

Internally, the object of class listw is transformed into a Matrix using the function listw2dgCMatrix.

The expression of the estimated variance covariance matrix of the limiting distribution of the normalized sample moments based on 2SLS residuals involves the inversion of $I-\rho W'$ . When inverse is FALSE, the inverse is calculated using the approximation $I +\rho W' + \rho^2 W'^2 + ...+ \rho^n W'^n$ . The powers considered depend on a condition. The function will keep adding terms until the absolute value of the sum of all elements of the matrix $\rho^i W^i$ is greater than a fixed $\epsilon$ (eps). By default eps is set to 1e-5.

Value

A list object of class sphet

`coefficients`	Generalized Spatial two stage least squares coefficient estimates of $\delta$ and GM estimator for $\rho$ .
`var`	variance-covariance matrix of the estimated coefficients
`s2`	GS2SLS residuals variance
`residuals`	GS2SLS residuals
`yhat`	difference between GS2SLS residuals and response variable
`call`	the call used to create this object
`model`	the model matrix of data
`method`	`'gs2slshac'`
`W`	Wald test for both $\rho$ and $\lambda$ are zero

Kelejian and Piras J-test

Description

The function calculate the Kelejian and Piras J-test for spatial models. Both models (under the null and under the alternative) can be specified with additional endogenous variables, and additional instruments. The model under the null allows for heteroskedasticity as well as spatial autocorrelation:

$y=\lambda W y + X \beta + u$

$u=Re$

with

$e ~ N(0,\sigma^2_i)$

Note that when R reduces to an identity matrix, the error term, while still heteroskedastic, is not spatially autocorrelated. On the other hand, when the $\sigma^2_i$ are all the same (and R is an identity matrix) than the error term is neither heteroskedastic nor autocorrelated.

Usage

kpjtest(H0model, H1model, data = list(), listw0 = NULL, listw1 = NULL, 
         endogH0 = NULL, endogH1 = NULL, instrumentsH0 = NULL, instrumentsH1 = NULL, 
         lag.instr = FALSE, model = "lag", het = FALSE, HAC = F, 
         distance = NULL, type = "Epanechnikov",
         bandwidth = "variable",  na.action = na.fail)
kpjtest(H0model, H1model, data = list(), listw0 = NULL, listw1 = NULL, 
         endogH0 = NULL, endogH1 = NULL, instrumentsH0 = NULL, instrumentsH1 = NULL, 
         lag.instr = FALSE, model = "lag", het = FALSE, HAC = F, 
         distance = NULL, type = "Epanechnikov",
         bandwidth = "variable",  na.action = na.fail)

Arguments

`H0model`	Formula object for the specification of the model under the null
`H1model`	Formula object for the specification of the model under the alternative
`data`	an object of class data.frame. An optional data frame containing the variables in the model
`listw0`	an object of class `listw`, `matrix`, or `Matrix`. The spatial weighting matrix under the null model
`listw1`	an object of class `listw`, `matrix`, or `Matrix`. The spatial weighting matrix under the alternative model
`endogH0`	additional endogenous variables under the null model. Default `NULL`. If not `NULL` should be specified as a formula with no dependent variable (endog = ~ x1 + x2). Note the ~ before the expression
`endogH1`	additional endogenous variables under the alternative model. Default `NULL`. If not `NULL` should be specified as a formula with no dependent variable (endog = ~ x1 + x2). Note the ~ before the expression
`instrumentsH0`	external instruments for the null model. Default `NULL`. If not `NULL` should be specified as a formula with no dependent variable (instruments = ~ x1 + x2). Note the ~ before the expression
`instrumentsH1`	external instruments for the alternative model. Default `NULL`. If not `NULL` should be specified as a formula with no dependent variable (instruments = ~ x1 + x2). Note the ~ before the expression
`lag.instr`	should the external instruments be spatially lagged?
`model`	one of `lag`, or `sarar`. The current version of the function only implements the lag model.
`het`	default FALSE: if TRUE uses the methods developed for heteroskedasticity
`HAC`	perform the HAC estimator of Kelejian and Prucha, 2007 on the null (and augmented) model.
`distance`	an object of class `distance` created for example by read.gwt2dist The object contains the specification of the distance measure to be employed in the estimation of the VC matrix. See Details.
`type`	One of `c("Epanechnikov","Triangular","Bisquare","Parzen", "QS","TH","Rectangular")`. The type of Kernel to be used. See Details.
`bandwidth`	"variable" (default) - or numeric when a fixed bandwidth is specified by the user.
`na.action`	a function which indicates what should happen when the data contains missing values. See lm for details

Details

In order to calculate the J-test, the function follows a few steps:

The alternative model is estimated by S2SLS.
Based on the estimated parameters in the previous step, obtain a prediction based on the alternative models of the dependent vector in the null model. The predictor is based on the right hand side of the model.
Use these predicted values of the dependent variable based on the alternative models into the null model to obtain the augmented model.
Estimate the augmented model by 2SLS using all of the instruments relating to the null model as well as all of the instruments relating to the alternative models.
Test for the statistical significance of the predicted value. If it is not significant, accept the null model. If it is significant, reject the null and conclude that the true model is the alternative models.

The output is an object of class sphet where the last row of the table of coefficients is the prediction.

When the model is heteroskedastic as well as spatially autocorrelated, an HAC procedure is employed. The default sets the bandwith for each observation to the maximum distance for that observation (i.e. the max of each element of the list of distances).

Six different kernel functions are implemented:

'Epanechnikov': $K(z) = 1-z^2$
'Triangular': $K(z) = 1-z$
'Bisquare': $K(z) = (1-z^2)^2$
'Parzen': $K(z) = 1-6z^2+6 |z|^3$ if $z \leq 0.5$ and $K(z) = 2(1-|z|)^3$ if $0.5 < z \leq 1$
'TH' (Tukey - Hanning): $K(z) = \frac{1+ \cos(\pi z)}{2}$
'Rectangular': $K(z) = 1$
'QS' (Quadratic Spectral): $K(z) = \frac{25}{12\pi^2z^2} (\frac{\sin(6\pi z)/5)}{6\pi z/5} - \cos(6\pi z)/5)$ ).

If the kernel type is not one of the six implemented, the function will terminate with an error message. The spatial two stage least square estimator is based on the matrix of instruments $H=[X,WX,W^2X^2]$ .

Value

A list object of class sphet

`coefficients`	Generalized Spatial two stage least squares coefficient estimates of $\delta$ and GM estimator for $\rho$ .
`var`	variance-covariance matrix of the estimated coefficients
`s2`	GS2SLS residuals variance
`residuals`	GS2SLS residuals
`yhat`	difference between GS2SLS residuals and response variable
`call`	the call used to create this object
`model`	the model matrix of data
`method`	`'s2slshac'`

Read distance ojbects

Description

The function reads "GWT" files (i.e. generated using distance. It will read also other more general formats (as for example .txt files).

Usage

read.gwt2dist(file, region.id = NULL, skip = 1)
read.gwt2dist(file, region.id = NULL, skip = 1)

Arguments

`file`	name of file to be read
`region.id`	variable that defines the ordering of the observations
`skip`	number of lines to skip

Details

The first line of a 'GWT' file generally contains some information (e.g. the name of the shape file, the number of observations), in which case, skip should be equal to 1. When the file has a 'GWT' extension, the number of observations is generally retrived from the first line. Alternatively, it is fixed to the length of the unique region.id variable.

Value

An object of class distance

GM estimation of a Cliff-Ord type model with Heteroskedastic Innovations

Description

Multi step GM/IV estimation of a linear Cliff and Ord -type of model of the form:

$y=\lambda W y + X \beta + u$

$u=\rho W u + e$

with

$e ~ N(0,\sigma^2_i)$

The model allows for spatial lag in the dependent variable and disturbances. The innovations in the disturbance process are assumed heteroskedastic of an unknown form.

Usage

spreg(formula, data = list(), listw, listw2 = NULL, 
        endog = NULL, instruments = NULL, 
        lag.instr = FALSE, initial.value = 0.2, q = 2,
        model = c("sarar", "lag", "error", "ivhac", "ols"),
        het = FALSE, verbose = FALSE, 
        na.action = na.fail,  HAC = FALSE, 
        distance = NULL, type =  c("Epanechnikov","Triangular",
                                   "Bisquare", "Parzen", "QS", "TH","Rectangular"), 
        bandwidth = "variable" , step1.c = FALSE,
        control = list(), Durbin = FALSE)
spreg(formula, data = list(), listw, listw2 = NULL, 
        endog = NULL, instruments = NULL, 
        lag.instr = FALSE, initial.value = 0.2, q = 2,
        model = c("sarar", "lag", "error", "ivhac", "ols"),
        het = FALSE, verbose = FALSE, 
        na.action = na.fail,  HAC = FALSE, 
        distance = NULL, type =  c("Epanechnikov","Triangular",
                                   "Bisquare", "Parzen", "QS", "TH","Rectangular"), 
        bandwidth = "variable" , step1.c = FALSE,
        control = list(), Durbin = FALSE)

Arguments

`formula`	a description of the model to be fit
`data`	an object of class data.frame. An optional data frame containing the variables in the model
`listw`	an object of class `listw`, `matrix`, or `Matrix`
`listw2`	an object of class `listw`, `matrix`, or `Matrix` specified only when `sarar` is true
`endog`	additional endogenous variables. Default `NULL`. If not `NULL` should be specified as a formula with no dependent variable (endog = ~ x1 + x2). Note the ~ before the expression.
`instruments`	external instruments. Default `NULL`. If not `NULL` should be specified as a formula with no dependent variable (instruments = ~ x1 + x2). Note the ~ before the expression.
`lag.instr`	should the external instruments be spatially lagged?
`initial.value`	The initial value for $\rho$ . It can be either numeric (default is 0.2) or set to `'SAR'`, in which case the optimization will start from the estimated coefficient of a regression of the 2SLS residuals over their spatial lag (i.e. a spatial AR model)
`q`	default equal 2, if 1 the only WX is considered in matrix of instruments
`model`	one of `lag`, `error`, `sarar`, `ivhac`, or `ols`. If HAC is TRUE, model should be one of `ivhac`, or `ols`.
`het`	default FALSE: if TRUE uses the methods developed for heteroskedasticity
`verbose`	print optimization details
`na.action`	a function which indicates what should happen when the data contains missing values. See lm for details.
`HAC`	perform the HAC estimator of Kelejian and Prucha, 2007.
`distance`	an object of class `distance` created for example by read.gwt2dist The object contains the specification of the distance measure to be employed in the estimation of the VC matrix. See Details.
`type`	One of `c("Epanechnikov","Triangular","Bisquare","Parzen", "QS","TH","Rectangular")`. The type of Kernel to be used. default = `"Epanechnikov"` See Details.
`bandwidth`	"variable" (default) - or numeric when a fixed bandwidth is specified by the user.
`step1.c`	Should step 1.c from Arraiz et al. 2012 be performed?
`control`	A list of control arguments. See nlminb
`Durbin`	Should (some of) the regressors be lagged? Default FALSE. If not `FALSE` should be specified as a formula with no dependent variable (Durbin = ~ x1 + x2) or set to `TRUE`. See details.

Details

In step two, the spatial Cochrane-Orcutt transformed model is estimated by 2SLS. This corresponds to a GS2SLS procedure. The GS2SLS residuals are used to obtain a consistent and efficient GM estimator for $\rho$ .

The initial value for the optimization in step 1b is taken to be initial.value. The initial value for the optimization of step 2b is the optimal parameter of step 1b.

Internally, the object of class listw is transformed into a Matrix using the function listw2dgCMatrix.

For the HAC estimator (Kelejian and Prucha, 2007), there are four possibilities:

A model with only Wy
A model with Wy and additional endogenous
Additional endogenous variables but no Wy
No additional endogenous variables (A linear model with HAC estimation)

In the first two cases, the model should be "ivhac", in the last two cases, the model should be "ols".

Furthermore, the default sets the bandwidth for each observation to the maximum distance for that observation (i.e. the max of each element of the list of distances).

Six different kernel functions are implemented:

'Epanechnikov': $K(z) = 1-z^2$
'Triangular': $K(z) = 1-z$
'Bisquare': $K(z) = (1-z^2)^2$
'Parzen': $K(z) = 1-6z^2+6 |z|^3$ if $z \leq 0.5$ and $K(z) = 2(1-|z|)^3$ if $0.5 < z \leq 1$
'TH' (Tukey - Hanning): $K(z) = \frac{1+ \cos(\pi z)}{2}$
'Rectangular': $K(z) = 1$
'QS' (Quadratic Spectral): $K(z) = \frac{25}{12\pi^2z^2} (\frac{\sin(6\pi z)/5)}{6\pi z/5} - \cos(6\pi z)/5)$ ).

If the kernel type is not one of the six implemented, the function will terminate with an error message.

Value

A list object of class sphet

`coefficients`	Generalized Spatial two stage least squares coefficient estimates of $\delta$ and GM estimator for $\rho$ .
`var`	variance-covariance matrix of the estimated coefficients
`s2`	GS2SLS residuals variance
`residuals`	GS2SLS residuals
`yhat`	difference between GS2SLS residuals and response variable
`call`	the call used to create this object
`model`	the model matrix of data
`method`	`'gs2slshac'`

Spatial two stages least square with HAC standard errors

Description

Non-parametric heteroskedasticity and autocorrelation consistent (HAC) estimator of the variance-covariance (VC) for a vector of sample moments within a spatial context. The disturbance vector is generated as follows:

$u = R \epsilon$

where $R$ is a non-stochastic matrix.

Usage

stslshac(formula, data = list(), listw,
             na.action = na.fail, zero.policy = NULL, HAC = TRUE,
             distance = NULL, type = "Epanechnikov", 
             bandwidth = "variable", W2X = TRUE)
stslshac(formula, data = list(), listw,
             na.action = na.fail, zero.policy = NULL, HAC = TRUE,
             distance = NULL, type = "Epanechnikov", 
             bandwidth = "variable", W2X = TRUE)

Arguments

`formula`	a description of the model to be fit
`data`	an object of class data.frame. An optional data frame containing the variables in the model.
`listw`	an object of class `listw` created for example by `nb2listw`
`na.action`	a function which indicates what should happen when the data contains missing values. See lm for details.
`zero.policy`	See `lagsarlm` for details
`HAC`	if FALSE traditional standard errors are provided.
`distance`	an object of class `distance` created for example by read.gwt2dist The object contains the specification of the distance measure to be employed in the estimation of the VC matrix. See Details.
`type`	One of `c("Epanechnikov","Triangular","Bisquare","Parzen", "QS","TH")`. The type of Kernel to be used. See Details.
`bandwidth`	"variable" (default) - or numeric when a fixed bandwidth is specified by the user.
`W2X`	default TRUE. if FALSE only WX are used as instruments in the spatial two stage least squares.

Details

The default sets the bandwidth for each observation to the maximum distance for that observation (i.e. the max of each element of the list of distances).

Six different kernel functions are implemented:

'Epanechnikov': $K(z) = 1-z^2$
'Rectangular': $K(z) = 1$
'Triangular': $K(z) = 1-z$
'Bisquare': $K(z) = (1-z^2)^2$
'Parzen': $K(z) = 1-6z^2+6 |z|^3$ if $z \leq 0.5$ and $K(z) = 2(1-|z|)^3$ if $0.5 < z \leq 1$
'TH' (Tukey - Hanning): $K(z) = \frac{1+ \cos(\pi z)}{2}$
'QS' (Quadratic Spectral): $K(z) = \frac{25}{12\pi^2z^2} (\frac{\sin(6\pi z)/5)}{6\pi z/5} - \cos(6\pi z)/5)$ ).

Value

A list object of class sphet

`coefficients`	Spatial two stage least squares coefficient estimates
