e |
a variable that contains the expected numbers of cases in each area. |
This function only accomodates variables with count data type.
The function returns a list with the following objects:
data frame with number of rows equal to number of areas containing the EB estimator. For domains with zero sample size, the EB estimators are based on the synthetic regression.
alpha: the scale estimator in Gamma distribution
v: the shape parameter estimator in Gamma distribution
method: Jackknife
mse: the mean squared error estimator of the EB estimators
est: direct estimators for the response variable
mse: the mean squared error estimator of the direct estimators
