A Bayesian space–time model for clustering areal units based on their disease trends [PDF]
Population-level disease risk across a set of non-overlapping areal units varies in space and time, and a large research literature has developed methodology for identifying clusters of areal units exhibiting elevated risks.

Benefits of spatio-temporal modelling for short term wind power forecasting at both individual and aggregated levels [PDF]
The share of wind energy in total installed power capacity has grown rapidly in recent years around the world. Producing accurate and reliable forecasts of wind power production, together with a quantification of the uncertainty, is essential to ...

The rational SPDE approach for Gaussian random fields with general smoothness [PDF]
A popular approach for modeling and inference in spatial statistics is to represent Gaussian random fields as solutions to stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) of the form $L^{\beta}u = \mathcal{W}$, where $\mathcal{W}$ is Gaussian white ...

Natural environments and suicide mortality in the Netherlands: a cross-sectional, ecological study [PDF]
Background: Natural outdoor environments, such as green spaces (ie, grass, forests, or parks), blue spaces (ie, visible bodies of fresh or salt water), and coastal proximity, have been increasingly shown to promote mental health.

Approximate Bayesian Model Selection with the Deviance Statistic [PDF]
Bayesian model selection poses two main challenges: the specification of parameter priors for all models, and the computation of the resulting Bayes factors between models.

Endemic species face a variety of threats including predation from non‐native invaders. In some cases, however, invasive species can be managed by directly suppressing populations, and tracking technologies that allow researchers to identify movement ...
