BorderEffect - Detection of Edge Effects in Field Trials via Besag-Kempton
Competition
Estimates and evaluates the intraspecific competition
coefficient associated with the edge (border) effect in
agricultural field trials, using the Besag-Kempton
autoregressive model and a least-squares estimator following

field-layout generation, spatial weight matrices, a formula
interface for arbitrary two-way designs, a simulation-based
decision procedure for presence or absence of the edge effect,
Moran's I diagnostics, and a 'shiny' application.
