sae2: Small Area Estimation: Time-Series Models
Time series area-level models for small area estimation.
The package supplements the functionality of the sae package.
Specifically, it includes EBLUP fitting of the original Rao-Yu model,
which in the original form did not have a spatial component. The
package also offers a modified ('dynamic') version of the Rao-Yu model,
replacing the assumption of stationarity. Both univariate and
multivariate applications are supported. Of particular note is the
allowance for covariance of the area-level sample estimates over time,
as encountered in rotating panel designs such as the U.S. National
Crime Victimization Survey or present in a time-series of 5-year
estimates from the American Community Survey. Key references to the
methods include
