geoaddSAE2

geoaddSAE2 provides functions for fitting area-level Geoadditive Small Area Estimation (SAE) models. The Geoadditive SAE model extends the classical Fay-Herriot model by incorporating nonlinear covariate effects and spatial variation.

Installation

You can install the released version of geoaddSAE2 from CRAN or find my github repository Github

install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("amalyahrizky04/geoaddSAE2")

Example

The following example illustrates the basic use of geosae().

#Load the library
library(geoaddSAE2)

#Load the dataset
data(simulated_sae)

#Estimate geoadditive SAE only
fit <- geosae(
        data = simulated_sae, 
        formula = y ~ x1 + x2, 
        vardir = vardir, 
        nonlinear = "x3", 
        knots = c("x3" = 10),
        spatial = c("lat", "lon"), 
        B = 10,
        seed = 1
      )

#Estimate geoadditive SAE and compare with Fay-Herriot and Spatial Fay-Herriot
fit <- geosae(
        data = simulated_sae, 
        formula = y ~ x1 + x2, 
        vardir = vardir, 
        nonlinear = "x3", 
        knots = c("x3" = 10),
        spatial = c("lat", "lon"), 
        compare = TRUE,
        B = 10,
        seed = 1
      ) 
      
print(fit) 
summary(fit)
