Geographical mortality patterns in Italy: A Bayesian analysis
In this paper, we present a hierarchical spatial model for the analysis of geographical variation in mortality between the Italian provinces in the year 2001, according to gender, age class, and cause of death. When analysing counts data specific to geographical locations, classical empirical rates or standardised mortality ratios may produce estimates that show a very high level of overdispers...

متن کاملAge and Time Patterns of Mortality by Cause in Italy: A Mortality Surface Approach
Riassunto L’obiettivo di questo lavoro è quello di analizzare la dinamica della mortalità per causa utilizzando un nuovo, semplice ed efficace strumento: la rappresentazione della principale causa di morte per età e nel tempo. Attraverso queste particolari superfici di mortalità, viene rivisitata la transizione epidemiologica in Italia. Focalizzando l’attenzione sull’ultima fase della transizio...
متن کاملNatural Scales in Geographical Patterns
Human mobility is known to be distributed across several orders of magnitude of physical distances, which makes it generally difficult to endogenously find or define typical and meaningful scales. Relevant analyses, from movements to geographical partitions, seem to be relative to some ad-hoc scale, or no scale at all. Relying on geotagged data collected from photo-sharing social media, we appl...
