Partially linear semiparametric models are advantageous to use in empirical studies of various economic problems due to a special feature that allows the parametric and nonparametric components to exist simultaneously in the model. However, systematic estimation procedures and methods have not...

In this paper, we discuss estimation procedure and various inferential methods for varying coefficient panel data models that include spatially correlated error components. Our estimation procedure is an extension of the quasi-maximum likelihood method for spatial panel data regression to the...
