      In this paper age-space-time models based on one and two-dimensional P-splines with B-spline bases are proposed for smoothing mortality rates, where both xed relative scale and scale invariant two-dimensional penalties ...
    • High-dimensional order-free multivariate spatial disease mapping 

      Vicente Fuenzalida, Gonzalo; Adin Urtasun, Aritz Upna Orcid; Goicoa Mangado, Tomás; Ugarte Martínez, María Dolores Upna Orcid (Springer, 2023)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      Despite the amount of research on disease mapping in recent years, the use of multivariate models for areal spatial data remains limited due to difficulties in implementation and computational burden. These problems are ...
    • Identifying extreme COVID-19 mortality risks in English small areas: a disease cluster approach 

      Adin Urtasun, Aritz Upna Orcid; Congdon, P.; Santafé Rodrigo, Guzmán Upna Orcid; Ugarte Martínez, María Dolores Upna Orcid (Springer, 2022)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      The COVID-19 pandemic is having a huge impact worldwide and has highlighted the extent of health inequalities between countries but also in small areas within a country. Identifying areas with high mortality is important ...
    • In spatio-temporal disease mapping models, identifiability constraints affect PQL and INLA results 

      Goicoa Mangado, Tomás; Adin Urtasun, Aritz Upna Orcid; Ugarte Martínez, María Dolores Upna Orcid; Hodges, James S. (Springer, 2018)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      Disease mapping studies the distribution of relative risks or rates in space and time, and typically relies on generalized linear mixed models (GLMMs) including fixed effects and spatial, temporal, and spatio-temporal ...
    • Online relative risks/rates estimation in spatial and spatio-temporal disease mapping 

      Adin Urtasun, Aritz Upna Orcid; Goicoa Mangado, Tomás Upna Orcid; Ugarte Martínez, María Dolores Upna Orcid (Elsevier, 2019)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      Background and objective: Spatial and spatio-temporal analyses of count data are crucial in epidemiology and other fields to unveil spatial and spatio-temporal patterns of incidence and/or mortality risks. However, fitting ...
    • Scalable Bayesian modeling for smoothing disease mapping risks in large spatial data sets using INLA 

      Orozco Acosta, Erick Upna Orcid; Adin Urtasun, Aritz Upna Orcid; Ugarte Martínez, María Dolores Upna Orcid (Elsevier, 2021)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      Several methods have been proposed in the spatial statistics literature to analyse big data sets in continuous domains. However, new methods for analysing high-dimensional areal data are still scarce. Here, we propose a ...
    • Space-time analysis of ovarian cancer mortality rates by age groups in Spanish provinces (1989-2015) 

      Trandafir, Paula Camelia Upna Orcid; Adin Urtasun, Aritz Upna Orcid; Ugarte Martínez, María Dolores Upna Orcid (BioMed Central, 2020)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      Background: Ovarian cancer is a silent and largely asymptomatic cancer, leading to late diagnosis and worse prognosis. The late-stage detection and low survival rates, makes the study of the space-time evolution of ovarian ...
