Abstract

Spatial estimation methods have shown their effectiveness in finding appropriate solutions that researchers encounter with regression models. In this research, the effect of some variables on hemoglobin will be studied at the level of Iraqi regions and. The maximum likelihood method will be used to estimate the spatial autoregressive model under the Rook contiguity spatial adjacency matrix. It has shown that the average hemoglobin data suffers from spatial dependence and that the variables (white blood cells, platelets, blood viscosity) have an effect on hemoglobin diseases.
