Area specific confidence intervals for a small area mean under the Fay-Herriot model
‎Small area estimates have received much attention from both private and public sectors due to the growing demand for effective planning of health services‎, ‎apportioning of government funds and policy and decision making‎. ‎Surveys are generally designed to give representative estimates at national or district level‎, ‎but estimates of variables of interest are oft...
متن کاملRobust Small Area Estimation Under Unit Level Models
Small area estimation has received considerable attention in recent years because of an increasing demand for small area statistics. Basic area level and unit level models have been studied in the literature to obtain empirical best linear unbiased predictors for small area means. Although this classical method is useful for estimating the small area means efficiently under strict model assumpt...
متن کاملSmall Area Estimation Under a Restriction
There are many situations in which it is desirable to derive reliable estimators for small geographical areas or small subpopulations, from existing survey data. The basic random e ects model and corresponding small area predictors for small area estimation is introduced. There are also many situations in which it is necessary to have the total of the small area predictors equal to the total of...
متن کاملSome New Developments in Small Area Estimation
Small area estimation has received a lot of attention in recent years due to growing demand for reliable small area statistics. Traditional area-specific estimators may not provide adequate precision because sample sizes in small areas are seldom large enough. This makes it necessary to employ indirect estimators based on linking models. Basic area level and unit level models have been extensiv...
متن کاملSmall area estimation under spatial nonstationarity
In this paper a geographical weighted pseudo empirical best linear unbiased predictor (GWEBLUP) for small area averages is proposed, and two approaches for estimating its mean squared error (MSE), a conditional approach and an unconditional one, are developed. The popular empirical best linear unbiased predictor (EBLUP) under the linear mixed model and its associated MSE estimator are obtained ...
