This package implements Bayesian hierarchical spatial
areal unit models. In such models the spatial correlation is
modelled by a set of random effects, which are assigned a
conditional autoregressive (CAR) prior distribution. Examples
of the models included are the BYM model as well as a recently
developed localised spatial smoothing model.The creation of
this package was supported by the Economic and Social Research
Council (ESRC) grant RES-000-22-4256.
