dc.description.abstractThree categories of the spatial data are geostatistical data, lattice data and point pattern data. This thesis focuses on the estimation aspect of the spatial unilateral autoregressive models for spatial lattice data on two-dimensional regular grid. Specifically, this thesis evaluate the efficiency of the estimators of the first order spatial unilateral autoregressive model, AR(1,1) using the bootstrapping methods. A comparative studies are done to compare the performance among the available methods for estimating the parameters of AR(1,1) model, namely the Yule- Walker, the unbiased Yule-Walker, the least squares and the maximum likelihood methods. Two types of bootstrap methods are considered, namely bootstrapping the residual and block bootstrap, which are commonly used in time series analysis. The standard error of the estimate is used as criterion to assess the efficiency of the estimators. To indicate the reliability of the estimate, the standard confidence intervals are constructed. The differences of the performance between two types of bootstrap methods are also being examined. In addition, the numerical examples are also given to illustrate the procedure of the bootstrapping methods to assess the efficiency of the estimators. The results of the thesis show that, in general, the Yule- Walker estimate is more efficient as compared to the other estimates and bootstrapping the residual method is easier and more consistent than the block bootstrap method.en_US
