  <dc:title>Modeling Spatially Varying Coefficients</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package varycoef version 0.3.6</dc:title>
  <dc:subject>CRAN Task View: Spatial (https://CRAN.R-project.org/view=Spatial)</dc:subject>
  <dc:description>Implements a maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) method for
    estimation and prediction of Gaussian process-based spatially varying
    coefficient (SVC) models (Dambon et al. (2021a)
    &lt;doi:10.1016/j.spasta.2020.100470&gt;).  Covariance tapering (Furrer et
    al. (2006) &lt;doi:10.1198/106186006X132178&gt;) can be applied such that
    the method scales to large data. Further, it implements a joint
    variable selection of the fixed and random effects (Dambon et al.
    (2021b) &lt;doi:10.1080/13658816.2022.2097684&gt;). The package and its 
    capabilities are described in (Dambon et al. (2021c)
    &lt;doi:10.48550/arXiv.2106.02364&gt;).</dc:description>
