Abstract

Geostatistics data in regions always have highly spatial heterogeneous, yet the regional features of the data itself cannot be ignored. In this paper, a novel latent Bayesian spatial model is proposed, which incorporates the spatial dependence of different subjects and the spatial random effects to further analysis the influence of spatial effect. The model is verified to be compatible with the integrated nested Laplace approximation (INLA) framework and is fitted using INLA and stochastic partial differential equation (SPDE). The posterior marginal distribution of parameters is estimated with high precision. Additionally, a practical application of the model is presented using tuberculosis (TB) incidence data in China from 2015 to 2019. The results show that the fitting accuracy of our model is higher than the general Bayesian spatial model using INLA-SPDE.
