In the Honaker and King 2010 article linked from the Amelia home page
there is a reference to using spatial proximity in an analysis:
We use the same technology for putting priors on individual
missing cell values to borrow strength from information in the data
of neighboring or similar countries via user-specified proximity
matrices.
I can't find any details in the appendix of the paper, nor can I find
any mention of how to do such a thing in the Amelia docs. Is this an
undocumented feature, or is it something that must be done outside of
Amelia when developing multiple priors. If it is the latter case,
I've got no clue how to do that and so would appreciate some pointers.
Regards,
James Marca
