Dear Roger,
thank you for your quick response!
If I understand it correctly, the hat matrix is calculated using all
explanatory variables. In my case, however, I would need to restrict the
column space to those covariates where I assume varying coefficients (as
in eq. (3)), and for this purpose I would need to calculate S_v by hand.
Therefore, I would need the weight matrices for every observation. Or is
there an easier way?
Naturally. Use the hat matrix from a regular GWR fit with only X_v
included, as the paper (seems to) describe.
Roger
Kind regards,
Marco

Dear list,
I am trying to fit a mixed geographically weighted regression model
(with adaptive kernel) using the spgwr package, i.e. I want to hold
coefficients fixed at the global level. Thus, I have the following
questions:
1. Which is the most efficient way to estimate such a model?
a) I found the posting
where Roger recommended to first fit a global model,
then the GWR using the residuals.
b) The method proposed in Mei et al. (2006, pp. 588-589, see
the locally varying part (called S_v) and uses this in a second step to
derive the fixed coefficients (this seems to me like an application of
2. In order to follow this method, I first have to find the kernel
weights at each point. The help-file says that these can be found in
SpatialPointsDataFrame (SDF), but I could not get it from there. Where
can I extract them?
The sums of weights for each fit point are in the returned object, but
this is not what you (do not) want. The S_v matrix in the paper (eq. 3)
returned as the hat matrix, I believe. Since you have S_v, you do not
the W(u_i, v_i) weights (a diagonal matrix for each fit (and data)
i). Given S_v, the unnumbered equation in the middle of the page gives
\hat{\beta_c}, doesn't it? I think that I would pre-multiply X_c and Y
(I - S_v), then use QR methods to complete, if I wanted to proceed with
this.
Because of concerns about how these things are done, and how they are
represented in the literature, I'd look for corrobotation - being able
reproduce others' published results for example.
Hope this helps,
Roger
We are using such a code:
library(spgwr)
data(georgia)
g.adapt.gauss <- gwr.sel(PctBach ~ TotPop90 + PctRural + PctEld +
+ PctPov + PctBlack, data=gSRDF, adapt=TRUE)
res.adpt <- gwr(PctBach ~ TotPop90 + PctRural + PctEld + PctFB +
+ PctBlack, data=gSRDF, adapt=g.adapt.gauss)
res.adpt$SDF
I hope my problem is clear and appreciate every hint! Thank you!
Best regards
Marco
