\title{Approximate profile-likelihood estimator (APLE)}
\description{
The Approximate profile-likelihood estimator (APLE) of the simultaneous autoregressive model's spatial dependence parameter was introduced in Li et al. (2007). It employs a correction term using the eigenvalues of the spatial weights matrix, and consequently should not be used for large numbers of observations. It also requires that the variable has a mean of zero, and it is assumed that it has been detrended. The spatial weights object is assumed to be row-standardised, that is using default \code{style="W"} in \code{nb2listw}.
}
\usage{
aple(x, listw, override_similarity_check=FALSE, useTrace=TRUE)
}
%- maybe also 'usage' for other objects documented here.
\arguments{
\item{x}{a zero-mean detrended continuous variable}
\item{listw}{a \code{listw} object from for example \code{spdep::nb2listw}}
\item{override_similarity_check}{default FALSE, if TRUE - typically for row-standardised weights with asymmetric underlying general weights - similarity is not checked}
\item{useTrace}{default TRUE, use trace of sparse matrix \code{W \%*\% W} (Li et al. (2010)), if FALSE, use crossproduct of eigenvalues of \code{W} as in Li et al. (2007)}
}
\details{
This implementation has been checked with Hongfei Li's own implementation using her data; her help was very valuable.
}
\value{
A scalar APLE value.
