Spatial and spatio-temporal county-level trends in COVID-19 mortality and emergency department visits in U.S. with R-INLA [PDF]
Weekly county-level COVID-19 mortality and emergency department (ED) visits data are critical data sources for understanding COVID-19 trends, but subject to reporting delays, sampling variability, potential instability and concerns due to statistical reliability as well as data suppression due to small numbers and the need to protect personally ...

Where Is the Clean Air? A Bayesian Decision Framework for Personalised Cyclist Route Selection Using R-INLA [PDF]
Exposure to air pollution in the form of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is known to cause diseases and cancers. Consequently, the public are increasingly seeking health warnings associated with levels of PM2.5 using mobile phone applications and ...

Using INLA to fit a complex point process model with temporally varying effects – a case study [PDF]
Integrated nested Laplace approximation (INLA) provides a fast and yet quite exact approach to fitting complex latent Gaussian models which comprise many statistical models in a Bayesian context, including log Gaussian Cox processes. This paper discusses
