[R-sig-Geo] spatial probit

[Eelke Folmer]

Roger Bivand mentions LeSage's matlab toolbox
(http://www.spatial-econometrics.com/), including very clear manuals with
theory. I am unable to judge the theoretical validity of the routines but I
experienced that I was able to estimate parameters of spatial probit
regression models (with MCMC) that reflected the parameters used in the
data-generating process.

Agus,

I recently asked a very similar question, and got the following thoughtful
reply from Roger Bivand:
https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-sig-geo/2008-May/003527.html

For my purpose, which is to estimate probabilities for use in an inverse
probability weighted regression, I've decided to explore alternative
routes, but if you find a way to estimate a probit model with a spatially
lagged limited dependent variable as a predictor, I'd be interested in
hearing about it as well.
