Efficient spatial modelling using the SPDE approach with bivariate splines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Gaussian fields (GFs) are frequently used in spatial statistics for their versatility. The associated computational cost can be a bottleneck, especially in realistic applications. It has been shown that computational efficiency can be gained by doing the

Bayesian modeling of the temporal evolution of seismicity using the ETAS.inlabru package

open access: yesFrontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2023
The epidemic type aftershock sequence (ETAS) model is widely used to model seismic sequences and underpins operational earthquake forecasting (OEF).

Natural environments and suicide mortality in the Netherlands: a cross-sectional, ecological study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
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.

Modelling Spatial Compositional Data: Reconstructions of past land cover and uncertainties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper, we construct a hierarchical model for spatial compositional data, which is used to reconstruct past land-cover compositions (in terms of coniferous forest, broadleaved forest, and unforested/open land) for five time periods during the past

Revealing migration and reproductive habitat of invasive fish under an active population suppression program

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, 2020
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 ...

survHE: Survival Analysis for Health Economic Evaluation and Cost-Effectiveness Modeling

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Software, 2020
Survival analysis features heavily as an important part of health economic evaluation, an increasingly important component of medical research. In this setting, it is important to estimate the mean time to the survival endpoint using limited information (

A note on intrinsic Conditional Autoregressive models for disconnected graphs

open access: yes, 2017
In this note we discuss (Gaussian) intrinsic conditional autoregressive (CAR) models for disconnected graphs, with the aim of providing practical guidelines for how these models should be defined, scaled and implemented. We show how these suggestions can

Modelación bayesiana de patrones espacio-temporales de la incidencia acumulada de COVID-19 en municipios de México

open access: yesRevista Latinoamericana de Población, 2019
El trabajo busca modelar la distribución de la tasa de incidencia acumulada de COVID-19 en los municipios de México a través del ajuste de tres modelos lineales generalizados (en competencia) con efectos espaciales y temporales y función de enlace ...

Comparison of inference methods of genetic parameters with an application to body weight in broilers [PDF]

open access: yesArchives Animal Breeding, 2015
REML (restricted maximum likelihood) has become the standard method of variance component estimation in animal breeding. Inference in Bayesian animal models is typically based upon Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods, which are generally flexible but
