A Review of Cross-Sectional Matrix Exponential Spatial Models
The matrix exponential spatial models exhibit similarities to the conventional spatial autoregressive model in spatial econometrics but offer analytical, computational, and interpretive advantages. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the literature on the estimation, inference, and model selection approaches for the cross-sectional matrix exponential spatial models. We discuss summary measures for the marginal effects of regressors and detail the matrix-vector product method for efficient estimation. Our aim is not only to summarize the main findings from the spatial econometric literature but also to make them more accessible to applied researchers. Additionally, we contribute to the literature by introducing some new results. We propose an M-estimation approach for models with heteroskedastic error terms and demonstrate that the resulting M-estimator is consistent and has an asymptotic normal distribution. We also consider some new results for model selection exercises. In a Monte Carlo study, we examine the finite sample properties of various estimators from the literature alongside the M-estimator.

Estimation of the spatial weighting matrix for regular lattice data -- An adaptive lasso approach with cross-sectional resampling
Spatial econometric research typically relies on the assumption that the spatial dependence structure is known in advance and is represented by a deterministic spatial weights matrix. Contrary to classical approaches, we…
Factoring the Matrix of Domination: A Critical Review and Reimagination of Intersectionality in AI Fairness
Intersectionality is a critical framework that, through inquiry and praxis, allows us to examine how social inequalities persist through domains of structure and discipline. Given AI fairness' raison d'etre of "fairness"…

We introduce an optimal transport-based model for learning a metric tensor from cross-sectional samples of evolving probability measures on a common Riemannian manifold. We neurally parametrize the metric as a spatially-…
