Overview

About

Maintained by Marten ThompsonFirst published 2023-06-211 releasesCRAN page ↗

Implements the Agnostic Fay-Herriot model, an extension of the traditional small area model. In place of normal sampling errors, the sampling error distribution is estimated with a Gaussian process to accommodate a broader class of distributions. This flexibility is most useful in the presence of bounded, multi-modal, or heavily skewed sampling errors.
