doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.spboost
abstract: 'Flexible nonlinear extension of spatial autoregressive (SAR), spatial error
  (SEM), and spatial autoregressive with autoregressive disturbances (SARAR) models
  with multiple regression engines (generalized additive models (''mgcv''), gradient
  boosting (''mboost''), multivariate adaptive regression splines (''earth''), and
  ''xgboost'') and two families of spatial-parameter estimators: maximum likelihood
  and the determinant-free Closed-Form Estimator of Smirnov (2020) <https://doi.org/10.1111/gean.12268>.

  boosting approach with closed-form estimation." Presented at Spatial Econometrics
