MCMCsamp: MCMC sample from fitted spatial regression

Description

The MCMCsamp method uses rwmetrop, a random walk Metropolis algorithm, from LearnBayes to make MCMC samples from fitted maximum likelihood spatial regression models.

Usage

MCMCsamp(object, mcmc = 1L, verbose = NULL, ...)
## S3 method for class 'spautolm':
MCMCsamp(object, mcmc = 1L, verbose = NULL, ...,
 burnin = 0L, scale=1, listw, control = list())
## S3 method for class 'sarlm':
MCMCsamp(object, mcmc = 1L, verbose = NULL, ...,
    burnin=0L, scale=1, listw, listw2=NULL, control=list())

Arguments

object

A spatial regression model object fitted by maximum likelihood with spautolm

mcmc

The number of MCMC iterations after burnin

verbose

default NULL, use global option value; if TRUE, reports progress

...

Arguments passed through

burnin

The number of burn-in iterations for the sampler

scale

a positive scale parameter

listw, listw2

listw objects created for example by nb2listw; should be the same object(s) used for fitting the model

control

list of extra control arguments - see spautolm

Value

• An object of class mcmc suited to coda, with attributes: accept acceptance rate; type input ML fitted model type SAR, CAR, SMA, lag, mixed, error, sac, sacmixed; timings run times
