Bsreg
Fit Bayesian models with a focus on spillover effects. Implements linear specifications (with or without shrinkage), allows for spatial lags of the dependent, explanatories, and error term, parameterised connectivity, and stochastic volatility.

Demonstration
# Load the package
library("bsreg")

x <- blm(log(sales) ~ log(price), data = cigarettes, lags = 1)
# Check convergence via trace and density plots
plot(x)
