Bayesian estimation of the intraclass correlation coefficients in the mixed linear model

Teresa H. Jelenkowska (1998)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

The method of determining Bayesian estimators for the special ratios of variance components called the intraclass correlation coefficients is presented. The exact posterior distribution for these ratios of variance components is obtained. The approximate posterior mean of this distribution is also derived. All computations are non-iterative and avoid numerical integration.

A Bayesian estimate of the risk of tick-borne diseases

Marek Jiruše, Josef Machek, Viktor Beneš, Petr Zeman (2004)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

The paper considers the problem of estimating the risk of a tick-borne disease in a given region. A large set of epidemiological data is evaluated, including the point pattern of collected cases, the population map and covariates, i.e. explanatory variables of geographical nature, obtained from GIS. The methodology covers the choice of those covariates which influence the risk of infection most. Generalized linear models are used and AIC criterion yields the decision. Further, an...
