Description
Modeling Spatially Varying Coefficients.
Description
Implements a maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) method for estimation and prediction of Gaussian process-based spatially varying coefficient (SVC) models (Dambon et al. (2021a) <doi:10.1016/j.spasta.2020.100470>). Covariance tapering (Furrer et al. (2006) <doi:10.1198/106186006X132178>) can be applied such that the method scales to large data. Further, it implements a joint variable selection of the fixed and random effects (Dambon et al. (2021b) <doi:10.1080/13658816.2022.2097684>). The package and its capabilities are described in (Dambon et al. (2021c) <arXiv:2106.02364>).
