scv_stats: Poisson-Gamma systematic component of variation

In guidopowell/scv: SCV

Description

Extension of the empbaysmooth function in DCluster. Adds a computation of the SCV as 100* nu/alpha^2. Computes from simulations a bootstrapped variance and 95% CI of the SCV.

Usage

scv_stats(obsx, expx)

Arguments

obsx	observed cases for a given population
expx	expected cases from standardization of given population

Value

obs

exp

pval Probability of O/E ratio in empirical Poisson-Gamma distribution

smoothed Empirical bayes smoothing of O/E ratio

scv Systematic component of variation

scv_var Bootstrapped variance of the scv

scv_CI_low Bootstrapped lower 95% confidence interval of SCV

scv_CI_upp Bootstrapped upper 95% confidence interval of SCV

Examples

data(nc.sids, package= "spData")

obs<-nc.sids$SID74

exp<-nc.sids$BIR74*sum(nc.sids$SID74)/sum(nc.sids$BIR74)

scv_stats(obs,exp)
