Abstract:
|
spatial-temporal linear model and the corresponding likelihood-based statistical inference are important tools for the analysis of spatial-temporal lattice data and have been applied in a wide range of disciplines. However, understanding of the asymptotic properties of maximum likelihood estimates under general asymptotic framework is limited. Here we focus on spatial-temporal simultaneous autoregressive models. Under increasing domain asymptotic framework, we propose mild regularity conditions on the spatial-temporal weight matrices and derive the asymptotic properties (consistency and asymptotic normality) of maximum likelihood estimates. A simulation study is conducted to examine the finite-sample properties of the maximum likelihood estimates.
