Hierarchical space-time modelling of epidemic dynamics: an application to measles outbreaks
How infectious diseases spread in space and time is an important question
that has received considerable theoretical attention. There are, however, few
empirical studies to support theoretical approaches, because data is scarce. In this
paper we propose to model the epidemic spread of measles in the London boroughs
between 1960 and 1970 by an extension of the Kriged Kalman filter (Mardia et
al., 1998) to count data. Results show the flexibility of our approach in describing
complex spatio-temporal dynamic
Transfer function modelling strategy for combining evidence on air pollution and daily mortality
A note on the asymptotic distribution of the maximum likelihood estimator for the scalar Skew-normal distribution
We consider likelihood based inference for the parameter of a skewnormal
distribution. One of the problems shown by this model is the singularity
of the Fisher information matrix when skewness is absent. We derive the rate of
convergence to the asymptotic distribution of the maximum likelihood estimator
and study an alternative parameterization which overcomes problems related to the
singularity of the information matrix
