MoranI

<code>[n x n]</code> adjacency matrix or general relational weight matrix of which \(A_ij\) indicates relationship from \(i\) to \(j\).

a vector of \(n\) continuous or binary, one-dimensional observations.

This function calculates Moran's I statistic given adjacency matrix and outcome.
The statistic can be used for testing network dependence.

When network dependence is present, that is when social relations can engender dependence in the outcome of interest, treating such observations as independent results in invalid, anti-conservative statistical inference. We propose a test of independence among observations sampled from a single network <arXiv:1710.03296>.
