This paper presents xsmle, a new Stata command for the estimation of spatial panel-data models. xsmle fits a spatial autoregressive model, a spatial error model, and a spatial Durbin model with fixed or random effects and with or without a dynamic component. Moreover, xsmle estimates the...

The minimum density power divergence (MDPD) framework (Basu et al., 1998) provides a family of estimators indexed by a parameter (α), which controls the tradeoff between efficiency and robustness. In this paper, we extend this estimation framework to finite mixtures of regression models. In...
