Evaluation of the Performance of Smoothing Functions in Generalized Additive Models for Spatial Variation in Disease
Generalized additive models (GAMs) with bivariate smoothing functions have been applied to estimate spatial variation in risk for many types of cancers. Only a handful of studies have evaluated the performance of smoothing functions applied in GAMs with regard to different geographical areas of elev...
