We propose a spatial multinomial probit model to examine the determinants of land use change, at the parcel level, in the French "Département du Rhones" from 1992 to 2003. It is based on an economic model that assumes that landowners have a choice between four land use categories for a given...

We apply a Bayesian hierarchical Poisson spatial interaction model to the paper trail left by patent citations between high-technology patents in Europe to identify and measure spatial separation effects of interregional knowledge flows. The model introduced here is novel in that it allows for...
