This paper addresses parameter estimation of spatial regression models incorporating spatial lag. These models are very important in spatial econometrics, where spatial interaction and structure are introduced into regression analysis. Because of spatial interactions, observations are not truly...

We consider the problem of finding D-optimal designs for estimating the coefficients in a weighted polynominal regression model with a certain efficiency function depending on two unknown parameters, which models he heteroscedastic error structure. This problem is tackled by adopting a Bayesian...

For many problems of statistical inference in regression modelling, the Fisher information matrix depends on certain nuisance parameters which are unknown and which enter the model nonlinearly. A common strategy to deal with this problem within the context of design is to construct maximin...
