Dear all, I have a brief question regarding Moran's I: Is there any research on the behavior of Moran's I for situations where the spatial weights matrix is binary, i.e. only includes either 1 or 0? Does Moran's I require weights that are distributed in a certain way in the [0,1] interval? Or is it sufficient to know who is connected to whom (i.e., binary weights)? Specifically, I'm interested in the question whether the use of binary weights introduces any form of bias in the estimated value of Moran's I.
Thanks very much for your reply in advance, Michael Michael Haenlein Associate Professor of Marketing ESCP Europe Paris, France [[alternative HTML version deleted]] _______________________________________________ R-sig-Geo mailing list R-sig-Geo@stat.math.ethz.ch https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-geo
