Bayesian Non-Parametric Models for Spatially Indexed Data of Mixed Type
空间索引混合类型数据的贝叶斯非参数模型
Summary We develop Bayesian non-parametric models for spatially indexed data of mixed type. Our work is motivated by challenges that occur in environmental epidemiology, where the usual presence of several confounding variables that exhibit complex interactions and high correlations makes it difficult to estimate and understand the effects of risk factors on health outcomes of interest. The modelling approach that we adopt assumes that responses and confounding variables are…
