RASCO: An R package to Alleviate the Spatial Confounding

Travis build status AppVeyor build status Codecov test coverage

Acknowlodgment

The authors would like to thank CAPES, CNPq and FAPEMIG for partial financial support.

Overview

RASCO is an R package that allow the practioners to fit restricted spatial models for three class of models:

  • Generalized linear mixed models

  • Shared component models

  • Spatial frailty models

Installing LSB Core

You may need to install the LSB Core

lsb_release is part of a software package called the LSB core, which is not necessarily installed on your system by default. To install it, run the command below that corresponds to your specific system:

Ubuntu, Debian

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install lsb-core

CentOS

sudo yum update && sudo yum install redhat-lsb-core

Fedora

sudo dnf update && sudo dnf install redhat-lsb-core

OpenSUSE

sudo zypper update && sudo zypper install lsb-core

Arch

pacman -Syu lsb-release

Installation

# Install from CRAN (when available)
install.packages("RASCO")
# Or the development version from GitHub
# install.packages("devtools")

The SVIF function provides the coefficients variance ratio between two models. We can notice that the restricted model alleviates the variance inflation
