Table 2.

Specification of the four types of spatio-temporal interaction considered in terms of the Kronecker product of the two matrices representing the structure of the spatial and temporal effect, respectively

Type of spatio-temporal interaction Rδ
I IsIt
II IsRt
III RsIt
IV RsRt

The matrix Is (It) represents the identity matrix, which corresponds to the unstructured spatial (temporal) effect, whereas Rs (Rt) represents a non-identity matrix that corresponds to a specific structured spatial (temporal) effect
