sae: An R Package for Small Area Estimation
Abstract We describe the R package sae for small area estimation. This package can be used to obtain model-based estimates for small areas based on a variety of models at the area and unit levels, along with basic direct and indirect estimates. Mean squared errors are estimated by analytical approximations in simple models and applying bootstrap procedures in more complex models. We describe th...
متن کاملSoftware tools for implementing simulation studies in adaptive seamless designs: introducing R package ASD
Adaptive designs for clinical trials have the potential to improve the efficiency of clinical research by, for instance, seamlessly combining different stages of a clinical development programme. Adaptive seamless designs (ASD) combining phases II and III with adaptations such as treatment or subgroup selection are becoming increasingly widely used. The work required to develop application spec...
متن کاملComparison of Small Area Estimation Methods for Estimating Unemployment Rate
Extended Abstract. In recent years, needs for small area estimations have been greatly increased for large surveys particularly household surveys in Sta­ tistical Centre of Iran (SCI), because of the costs and respondent burden. The lack of suitable auxiliary variables between two decennial housing and popula­ tion census is a challenge for SCI in using these methods. In general, the...
متن کاملIntroducing elliptic, an R package for elliptic and modular functions
This paper introduces the elliptic package of R routines, for numerical calculation of elliptic and related functions. Elliptic functions furnish interesting and instructive examples of many ideas of complex analysis, and package elliptic illustrates these numerically and visually. A statistical application in fluid mechanics is presented. An earlier version of this vignette was published as Ha...
متن کاملinvestr: An R Package for Inverse Estimation
Inverse estimation is a classical and well-known problem in regression. In simple terms, it involves the use of an observed value of the response to make inference on the corresponding unknown value of the explanatory variable. To our knowledge, however, statistical software is somewhat lacking the capabilities for analyzing these types of problems. In this paper, we introduce investr (which st...
