Σύνοψη	Bayesian Geary's C embeds the classical Geary contiguity ratio within a Bayesian hierarchical framework. Instead of a single point estimate and asymptotic p-value, it produces a posterior distribution over the statistic (or over spatially structured random effects), quantifying uncertainty about spatial autocorrelation while formally incorporating prior knowledge about the spatial process.	Bayesian Local Indicators of Spatial Association extend the classical LISA framework by embedding local spatial association statistics within a Bayesian hierarchical model. Rather than relying on asymptotic permutation-based significance tests, this approach places prior distributions on spatial parameters and derives posterior probabilities that a location is part of a genuine spatial cluster, accounting for uncertainty and borrowing strength across nearby units.
