The Fay–Herriot Model in Small Area Estimation
Standard methods of variance component estimation used in the Fay-Herriot model for small areas can produce problems of inadmissible values (negative or zero) for these variances. This implies that the empirical best linear unbiased predictor of a small area mean does not take into account the vari...
