Local Spatial Lag Model

The Local Spatial Lag Model extends the classical spatial lag model by allowing both the spatial autocorrelation parameter and the regression coefficients to vary across geographic locations. Instead of one global estimate of how neighboring outcomes influence each observation, the model fits location-specific parameters using kernel-weighted local estimation, revealing spatial heterogeneity in spatial dependence.
