In this paper, we review overdispersed Bayesian generalized spatial conditional count data models. Their usefulness is illustrated with their application to infant mortality rates from Colombian regions and by comparing them with the widely used Besag ...

Modeling and Estimation for Self-Exciting Spatio-Temporal Models of Terrorist Activity [PDF]
Spatio-temporal hierarchical modeling is an extremely attractive way to model the spread of crime or terrorism data over a given region, especially when the observations are counts and must be modeled discretely.

Improving traffic safety is a priority of most transportation agencies around the world. As part of traffic safety management strategies, efforts have focused on developing more accurate crash-frequency models and on identifying contributing factors in ...

Integrated Nested Laplace Approximations (INLA)
This is a short description and basic introduction to the Integrated nested Laplace approximations (INLA) approach. INLA is a deterministic paradigm for Bayesian inference in latent Gaussian models (LGMs) introduced in Rue et al. (2009). INLA relies on a combination of analytical approximations and efficient numerical integration schemes to achieve ...

Spatial Data Analysis with R-INLA with Some Extensions
The integrated nested Laplace approximation (INLA) provides an interesting way of approximating the posterior marginals of a wide range of Bayesian hierarchical models.

Summary1. Spatial analysis of ecological data is central to many interesting questions in ecology. Bayesian implementation of spatially explicit models has received increasing attention from ecologists as Monte Carlo Markov Chain (MCMC) methods have become freely accessible. MCMC simulations offer a flexible framework for modelling extensive ecological

Rational Krylov for Stieltjes matrix functions: convergence and pole selection
Evaluating the action of a matrix function on a vector, that is $x=f(\mathcal M)v$, is an ubiquitous task in applications. When $\mathcal M$ is large, one usually relies on Krylov projection methods.

Palm distributions for log Gaussian Cox processes [PDF]
This paper establishes a remarkable result regarding Palmdistributions for a log Gaussian Cox process: the reduced Palmdistribution for a log Gaussian Cox process is itself a log Gaussian Coxprocess which only differs from the original log Gaussian Cox ...

Spatially misaligned data can be fused by using a Bayesian melding model that assumes that underlying all observations there is a spatially continuous Gaussian random field.
