AN ADDITIVE MODEL FOR SPATIO-TEMPORAL SMOOTHING OF CANCER MORTALITY RATES
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
In this paper, a Bayesian hierarchical model is used to anaylze the female breast cancer mortality rates for the State of Missouri from 1969 through 2001. The logit transformations of the mortality rates are assumed to be linear over the time with additive spatial and age effects as intercepts and slopes. Objective priors of the hierarchical model are explored. The Bayesian estimates are quite robustness in terms change of the hyperparamaters. The spatial correlations are appeared in both intercepts and slopes.

A Variational Framework for Spatio-temporal Smoothing of Fluid Motions
In this paper, we introduce a variational framework derived from data assimilation principles in order to realize a temporal Bayesian smoothing of fluid flow velocity fields. The velocity measurements are supplied by an optical flow estimator. These noisy measurement are smoothed according to the vorticity-velocity formulation of Navier-Stokes equation. Following optimal control recipes, the as...
متن کاملGeneralized Additive Models with Spatio-temporal Data
Generalized additive models (GAMs) have been widely used. While the procedure for fitting a generalized additive model to independent data has been well established, not as much work has been done when the data are correlated. The currently available methods are not completely satisfactory in practice. A new approach is proposed to fit generalized additive models with spatio-temporal data via t...
متن کاملAdaptive Kernel Smoothing Regression for Spatio-Temporal Environmental Datasets
This paper describes a method for performing kernel smoothing regression in an incremental, adaptive manner. A simple and fast combination of incremental vector quantization with kernel smoothing regression using adaptive bandwidth is shown to be effective for online modeling of environmental datasets. The method is illustrated on openly available datasets corresponding to the Tropical Atmosphe...
متن کاملHierarchical Spatio-Temporal Mapping of Disease Rates
Maps of regional morbidity and mortality rates are useful tools in determining spatial patterns of disease. Combined with socio-demographic census information, they also permit assessment of environmental justice, i.e., whether certain subgroups suuer disproportionately from certain diseases or other adverse eeects of harmful environmental exposures. Bayes and empirical Bayes methods have prove...
