Graph‐Laplacian modeling of spatiotemporal effects for house price estimation
Real Estate Economics, EarlyView.Abstract Many variables involve the modeling of spatial effects, and their dynamics over time. This article presents a linear model in which spatiotemporal random effects are modeled by graph‐Laplacians. A graph‐Laplacian flexibly encodes adjacency in both space and time, in our case not depending on unknown parameters. The graph‐Laplacian can be input

Deindustrialization and demographic change: Evidence from big plant closures and downsizing
Canadian Journal of Economics/Revue canadienne d'économique, EarlyView.Abstract We estimate the causal effect of big manufacturing plant closures and downsizing on the socioeconomic composition of Canadian cities between 2001 and 2021. Our instrumental variables estimates show that big manufacturing plant closures and downsizing—large local labour demand shocks—lead to less population growth and a shift in the demographic

We use spatially explicit lake Secchi disk depth measures and information on over 320,000 property sales to provide the most ...
