Small Area Estimation with Zero-Inflated Model.

zipsae

This function produces empirical best linier unbiased predictions (EBLUPs) for Zero-Inflated data and its Relative Standard Error. Small Area Estimation with Zero-Inflated Model (SAE-ZIP) is a model developed for Zero-Inflated data that can lead us to overdispersion situation. To handle this kind of situation, this model is created. The model in this package is based on Small Area Estimation with Zero-Inflated Poisson model proposed by Dian Christien Arisona (2018). For the data sample itself, we use combination method between Roberto Benavent and Domingo Morales (2015) and Sabine Krieg, Harm Jan Boonstra and Marc Smeets (2016).

Installation

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

Example

##load the dataset in package
library(zipsae)
data(dataSAEZIP)

##Extract the vardir (sampling error)
dataSAEZIP$vardir -> sError

##Compute the data with SAE ZIP model
formula = (y~x1)
zipsae(data = dataSAEZIP, vardir = sError, formula) -> saezip

head(saezip$estimate)
#>           [,1]
#> [1,] 0.2925708
#> [2,] 0.2790501
#> [3,] 0.2772425
#> [4,] 0.2884874
#> [5,] 0.2931530
#> [6,] 0.2970365
## saezip$estimate        #to see the result of Small Area Estimation with Zero-Inflated Model
## saezip$dispersion$rse  #to see the relative standard error from the estimation
## saezip$coefficient$lambda   #to see the estimator which is gained from the non-zero compilation data.
## saezip$coefficient$omega   #to see the estimator which is gained from the complete compilation data.
