Malaria Risk Mapping Using Routine Health System Incidence Data in Zambia
Benjamin M. Taylor, Ricardo Andrade-Pacheco, Hugh Sturrock +7
Improvements to Zambia's malaria surveillance system allow better monitoring of incidence and targetting of responses at refined spatial scales. As transmission decreases, understa…
A Multi-Way Correlation Coefficient
Benjamin M. Taylor
Pearson's correlation is an important summary measure of the amount of dependence between two variables. It is natural to want to generalise the concept of correlation as a single…
A Model-Based General Alternative to the Standardised Precipitation Index
Erick A. Chacón-Montalván, Luke Parry, Gemma Davies +1
In this paper, we introduce two new model-based versions of the widely-used standardized precipitation index (SPI) for detecting and quantifying the magnitude of extreme hydro-clim…
Mapping food insecurity in the Brazilian Amazon using a spatial item factor analysis model
Erick A. Chacón-Montalván, Luke Parry, Emanuele Giorgi +4
Food insecurity, a latent construct defined as the lack of consistent access to sufficient and nutritious food, is a pressing global issue with serious health and social justice im…
Continuous Inference for Aggregated Point Process Data
Benjamin M. Taylor, Ricardo Andrade-Pacheco, Hugh J. W. Sturrock
This article introduces new methods for inference with count data registered on a set of aggregation units. Such data are omnipresent in epidemiology due to confidentiality issues:…
Spatial Modelling of Emergency Service Response Times
Benjamin M. Taylor
This article concerns the statistical modelling of emergency service response times. We apply advanced methods from spatial survival analysis to deliver inference for data collecte…
