Continuous and discrete unobserved heterogeneity have been widely used in modeling discrete choice models. In this dissertation I investigate how these modeling strategies can be used to capture and model spatial heterogeneity or locally varying coefficients for different latent structures. In the first chapter, I outline the main advantages and disadvantages of both continuous and discrete spatial modeling strategies. Then I conduct a simulation experiment in order to understand the ability of both approaches to retrieve the true representation of the spatially varying process under small sample size situations. The results show that the data requirement to achieve lower bias in the continuous case is substantial compared with the discrete case. I have also found that, as the number of individuals per spatial unit increases, both models are able to identify the regional-specific estimates. However, the discrete case is able to retrieve the true spatial heterogeneity surface with lower bias and better coverage. In the second chapter, I show the Rchoice package for R that allows estimating models with individual heterogeneity for both cross-sectional and panel data. In particular, the package allows binary, ordinal and count response, as well as continuous and discrete covariates. This chapter is a general description of Rchoice and all functionalities are illustrated using real databases. The last chapter shows how continuous and discrete spatial heterogeneity models can be applied in order to analyze whether monetary subjective well-being eval- uations vary across space using a cross-sectional dataset from Chile. The results show that focusing just on the average estimates of compensating variations veils useful local variation. Moreover, the discrete approach shows some weak superiority over the continuous case in terms of model fit and interpretation.

This book systematically provides a prospective integrated approach for complexity social science in its view of statistical physics and mathematics, with an impressive collection of the knowledge and expertise of leading researchers from all over the world. The book mainly covers both finitary methods of statistical equilibrium and data-driven analysis by econophysics. The late Professor Masanao Aoki of UCLA, who passed away at the end of July 2018, in his later years dedicated himself to the reconstruction of macroeconomics mainly in terms of statistical physics. Professor Aoki, who was already an IEEE fellow, was also named an Econometric Society Fellow in 1979. Until the early 1990s, however, his contributions were focused on the new developments of a novel algorithm for the time series model and their applications to economic data. Those contributions were undoubtedly equivalent to the Nobel Prize-winning work of Granger's "co-integration method". After the publications of his New Approaches to Macroeconomic Modeling and Modeling Aggregate Behavior and Fluctuations in Economics, both published by Cambridge University Press, in 1996 and 2002, respectively, his contributions rapidly became known and spread throughout the field. In short, these new works challenged econophysicists to develop evolutionary stochastic dynamics, multiple equilibria, and externalities as field effects and revolutionized the stochastic views of interacting agents. In particular, the publication of Reconstructing Macroeconomics, also by Cambridge University Press (2007), in cooperation with Hiroshi Yoshikawa, further sharpened the process of embodying “a perspective from statistical physics and combinatorial stochastic processes” in economic modeling. Interestingly, almost concurrently with Prof. Aoki’s newest development, similar approaches were appearing. Thus, those who were working in the same context around the world at that time came together, exchanging their results during the past decade. In memory of Prof. Aoki, this book has been planned by authors who followed him to present the most advanced outcomes of his heritage.

Geographical Weighted Regression (GWR) is a new local modelling technique for analysing spatial analysis. This technique allows local as opposed to global models of relationships to be measured and mapped. This is the first and only book on this technique, offering comprehensive coverage on this new 'hot' topic in spatial analysis. * Provides step-by-step examples of how to use the GWR model using data sets and examples on issues such as house price determinants, educational attainment levels and school performance statistics * Contains a broad discussion of and basic concepts on GWR through to ideas on statistical inference for GWR models * uniquely features accompanying author-written software that allows users to undertake sophisticated and complex forms of GWR within a user-friendly, Windows-based, front-end (see book for details).

This edited volume compiles a set of papers that present various applications of spatial analysis, both traditional and contemporary, on diverse subjects in a wide range of contexts. The volume is dedicated to the memory of the late Professor Pavlos Kanaroglou, McMaster University, Canada, who greatly contributed to scientific and applied research on spatial analysis. In his honor, the book offers a selection of various spatial analysis approaches to the study of contemporary urban transportation, land use, and air pollution issues. The first part of the book discusses selected general issues in spatial analysis; ontologies, agent-based modelling and accessibility analysis. The second part deals with urban transportation analysis and modelling issues; agent-based activity/travel microsimulation, bottleneck models, public transit use, freight transport and connected automated vehicles impact assessment. Part three focuses on integrated land use and transport analysis, discussing the land value impacts of public transport infrastructure, the role of transport provision on business evolution and commute distance considerations in urban relocation. The fourth part, on travel-related air pollution analysis, presents the development of a geo-information software for mapping Aerosol Optical Thickness in urban environments and the development of a neighborhood level, real time, internet-enabled, air pollution map in the Canadian urban context. This book will appeal to academics, researchers, graduate students, consultants, and practitioners working on topics related to spatial analysis, land use and transport analysis, planning and decision making, and air pollution studies.

A collection of 16 essays written between 1958 and 1990 (most previously published in journals and edited volumes) that provides an account of the main developments in 20th-century continental philosophy. The volume is divided into four sections: the existence- problem--explorations in existentialism and phenomenology; the disciplinary crisis in the human sciences--between empiricism and structuralism; deconstruction and reflections on the end of philosophy; and the postmodern challenge and the reconstruction of reason.
