It delves into both the classical theory and the latest methods, providing a comprehensive understanding of these topics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book begins by addressing fundamental issues in mixed-effects models, including parameter estimation, random effects prediction, variable selection, and asymptotic theory. It explains how these models can be used to analyze data with both fixed and random effects, allowing for a more accurate representation of the relationships between variables.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNext, the standard mixed-effects models commonly employed in small area estimation, such as the Fay-Herriot model and the nested error regression model, are introduced. These models are used to estimate parameters of interest at the small area level, accounting for the spatial dependence of the data. Both frequentist and Bayesian approaches are discussed, providing readers with the flexibility to choose the most appropriate method based on their research objectives and assumptions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo measure the uncertainty of the predictors, the book explores several methods to calculate mean squared errors and confidence intervals. It discusses the advantages and disadvantages of each method and helps readers select the most suitable approach for their data analysis.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFurthermore, the book introduces various advanced approaches using mixed-effects models, ranging from frequentist to Bayesian approaches. It discusses the benefits and limitations of each approach and provides examples of how they can be applied to real-world data sets.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book is an invaluable resource for researchers and graduate students in fields requiring data analysis skills as well as in mathematical statistics. It provides a solid foundation in mixed-effects models and small area estimation, enabling readers to apply these techniques to their research and gain valuable insights into their data.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 214g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 155 x 233 x 10 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9789811994852\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2023\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shonosuke Sugasawa,Tatsuya Kubokawa","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44303991144698,"sku":"9789811994852","price":45.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_32f1ef02-3a1d-4820-acd2-6b0bc9c279dc.jpg?v=1688020130","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/mixedeffects-models-and-small-area-estimation-9789811994852","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
