The package hgwrr is used to calibrate Hierarchical and Geographically Weighted Regression (HGWR) model on spatial data. It requires the spatial hierarchical structure in the data; i.e., samples are grouped by their locations. All the variables are either in the group level or sample level. For the group-level variables, they can have fixed effects (globally constant) or spatially weighted effects (varying with the location). For the sample-level variables, they can have fixed effects or random effects (varying among groups). We note the fixed effects as \(\beta\), the group-level spatially weighted (GLSW) effects as \(\gamma\), and sample-level random (SLR) effects as \(\mu\). The HGWR model consists of these three kinds of effects and estimates the three kinds of effects considering the spatial heterogeneity.

To calibrate a HGWR model, use the function hgwr()
.
hgwr(
formula, data, ..., bw = "CV",
kernel = c("gaussian", "bisquared"),
alpha = 0.01, eps_iter = 1e-6, eps_gradient = 1e-6,
max_iters = 1e6, max_retries = 1e6,
ml_type = c("D_Only", "D_Beta"), verbose = 0
)
The following is explanation of some important parameters.
formula
This parameter specifies the model form. Recall that the three kinds of effects are GLSW, fixed, and SLR effects. They are specified in different parts of the formula.
In the formula, L()
is used to mark some effects as GLSW
effects, and ( | group)
is used to set the SLR effects and
grouping indicator. Only group-level variables can have GLSW
effects.
data
sf
objects
From version 0.3-1, this parameter supports sf
objects.
In this case, no further arguments in ...
are required.
Here is an example.
data(wuhan.hp)
m_sf <- hgwr(
formula = Price ~ L(d.Water + d.Commercial) + BuildingArea + (Floor.High | group),
data = wuhan.hp,
bw = 299
)
data.frame
objects
If the data is a normal data.frame
object, an extra
argument coords
is required to specify the coordinates of
each group. Note that the row order of coords
needs to
match that of the group
variable. Here is an example.
bw
and kernel
Argument bw
is the bandwidth used to estimate GLSW
effects. It can be either of the following options:
"CV"
letting the algorithm select one.Argument kernel
is the kernel function used to estimate
GLSW effects. Currently, there are only two choices:
"gaussian"
and "bisquared"
.
The output of returned object of hgwr()
shows the
estimates of the effects.
