תקציר	Bayesian Moran's I embeds the classical Moran's I spatial autocorrelation test within a Bayesian probabilistic framework. Rather than producing a single p-value, it yields a posterior distribution over the spatial autocorrelation parameter, enabling uncertainty quantification, incorporation of prior knowledge, and more principled inference in small or irregular spatial datasets.	Bayesian Spatial Autocorrelation embeds spatial dependence directly into a Bayesian hierarchical model. A Conditional Autoregressive (CAR) prior encodes the expectation that neighboring areas are more similar than distant ones, and posterior inference is obtained via MCMC. This approach is especially valuable in disease mapping, ecology, and regional science, where small-area estimates need borrowing strength across neighbors.
