Small area estimation of labour force indicators under a multinomial model with correlated time and area effects
(Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2014-09-30)
[Abstract] The aim of the paper is the estimation of small area labour force indicators like totals of employed and unemployed people and unemployment rates. Small area estimators of these quantities are derived from four ...
Small area estimation of average compositions under multivariate nested error regression models
(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2023)
[Abstract]: This paper investigates the small area estimation of population averages of unit-level compositional data. The new methodology transforms the compositions into vectors of Rm and assumes that the vectors follow ...
Prediction of forest fires occurrences with area-level Poisson mixed models
(Academic Press, 2015-05-01)
[Abstract] The number of fires in forest areas of Galicia (north-west of Spain) during the summer period is quite high. Local authorities are interested in analyzing the factors that explain this phenomenon. Poisson ...
Empirical best prediction under area-level Poisson mixed models
(Springer, 2015-12-19)
[Abstract] The paper studies the applicability of area-level Poisson mixed models to estimate small area counting indicators. Among the available procedures for fitting generalized linear models, the method of moments (MM) ...
Burned area prediction with semiparametric models
(CSIRO Publishing, 2016-04-27)
[Abstract] Wildfires are one of the main causes of forest destruction, especially in Galicia (north-west Spain), where the area burned by forest fires in spring and summer is quite high. This work uses two semiparametric ...
Poisson mixed models for predicting number of fires
(CSIRO, 2019-03)
[Abstract]: Wildfires are considered one of the main causes of forest destruction. In recent years, the number of forest fires and burned area in Mediterranean regions have increased. This problem particularly affects ...
Simultaneous inference for linear mixed model parameters with an application to small area estimation
(John Wiley & Sons, 2022)
[Abstract]: Over the past decades, linear mixed models have attracted considerable attention in various fields of applied statistics. They are popular whenever clustered, hierarchical or longitudinal data are investigated. ...
Empirical best prediction of small area bivariate parameters
(Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2022)
[Abstract]: This paper introduces empirical best predictors of small area bivariate parameters, like ratios of sums or sums of ratios, by assuming that the target unit-level vector follows a bivariate nested error regression ...
Small area estimation of expenditure means and ratios under a unit-level bivariate linear mixed model
(Taylor and Francis Group, 2022)
[Abstract]: Under a unit-level bivariate linear mixed model, this paper introduces small area predictors of expenditure means and ratios, and derives approximations and estimators of the corresponding mean squared errors. ...
Small area prediction of proportions and counts under a spatial Poisson mixed model
(Springer Nature, 2023-10-31)
[Abstract]: This paper introduces an area-level Poisson mixed model with SAR(1) spatially correlated random effects. Small area predictors of proportions and counts are derived from the new model and the corresponding mean ...
