An Extended Simplified Laplace strategy for Approximate Bayesian inference of Latent Gaussian Models using R-INLA

open access: yes, 2022
Various computational challenges arise when applying Bayesian inference approaches to complex hierarchical models. Sampling-based inference methods, such as Markov Chain Monte Carlo strategies, are renowned for providing accurate results but with high computational costs and slow or questionable convergence.

Butterfly abundances but not patch occupancy buffered by vegetation heterogeneity during climatic extremes

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
As extreme climatic events are becoming more frequent, we need to understand what mechanisms could buffer populations to ensure their persistence. Fragmented populations may be especially vulnerable, as exemplified by species with metapopulation dynamics whose persistence is determined by a precarious balance between frequent local extinctions and ...

geoCount: An R Package for the Analysis of Geostatistical Count Data

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Software, 2015
We describe the R package geoCount for the analysis of geostatistical count data. The package performs Bayesian analysis for the Poisson-lognormal and binomial-logitnormal spatial models, which are subclasses of the class of generalized linear spatial ...

Developing an Early Childhood Environmental Health Vulnerability Index to Assess Cumulative Health Impacts Across Contiguous US

open access: yesGeoHealth, Volume 10, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Young children (birth to age five) are uniquely vulnerable to environmental hazards due to their higher exposure relative to body weight, rapid physiological and neurological development, and strong reliance on caregivers for protection and care.

Social engagement, formal education, and cognitive outcomes among older adults in India: A longitudinal population‐based study

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract INTRODUCTION We estimated the associations between baseline social engagement and cognitive function and change among older adults in India, overall and by education. METHODS Data were from 3869 adults aged ≥ 60 years from the Longitudinal Aging Study in India—Diagnostic Assessment of Dementia Wave 1 (2017–2019) and Wave 2 (2022–2024 ...

Bayesian Inference for the Automultinomial Model With an Application to Landcover Data

open access: yesEnvironmetrics, Volume 37, Issue 6, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Multicategory lattice data arise in a wide variety of disciplines such as image analysis, biology, and forestry. We consider modeling such data with the automultinomial model, which can be viewed as a natural extension of the autologistic model to multicategory responses, or equivalently as an extension of the Potts model that incorporates ...
