Implementation of Small Area Estimation (SAE) using Hierarchical Bayesian (HB) Method when auxiliary variable measured with error under Beta Distribution. The 'rjags' package is employed to obtain parameter estimates.

We designed this package to provide several functions for area level of small area estimation using hierarchical Bayesian (HB) method. This package provides model using panel data for variable interest.This package also provides a dataset produced by a data generation. The 'rjags' package is employed to obtain parameter estimates. Model-based estimators involves the HB estimators which include the mean and the variation of mean. For the reference, see Rao and Molina (2015).

Several functions are provided for small area estimation at
    the area level using the hierarchical bayesian (HB) method with panel
    data under beta distribution for variable interest. This package also
    provides a dataset produced by data generation. The 'rjags' package is
    employed to obtain parameter estimates. Model-based estimators involve
    the HB estimators, which include the mean and the variation of the
    mean. For the reference, see Rao and Molina (2015, ISBN:

Provides several functions and datasets for area level of Small Area Estimation under Spatial Model using Hierarchical Bayesian (HB) Method. Model-based estimators include the HB estimators based on a Spatial Fay-Herriot model with univariate normal distribution for variable of interest.The 'rjags' package is employed to obtain parameter estimates. For the reference, see Rao and Molina (2015) <doi:10.1002/9781118735855>.

Estimates area and subarea level proportions using the Small Area Estimation (SAE) Twofold Subarea Model with a hierarchical Bayesian (HB) approach under Beta distribution. A number of simulated datasets generated for illustration purposes are also included. The 'rstan' package is employed to estimate parameters via the Hamiltonian Monte Carlo and No U-Turn Sampler algorithm. The  model-based estimators include the HB mean, the variation of the mean, and quantiles.
