Dear Prof. Bivand,
Thanks a lot for responding and providing the material to read. I will definitely go through your paper and the references cited in it. I am working on simulating various scenarios where autocorrelation exists in Y or X or both and also in the residuals and compare the model performances on these data. At present I have planned to assign same weights (distance based) for both X and Y. I have found solution to simulate autocorrelated Y based on your response in the link ( https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-sig-geo/2011-September/012728.html). But I have not found a way to induce autocorrelation in even the independent variables(s). Hence I posted this query. Thanks in advance. Regards, Amitha Puranik.
