Fit constant Small Area Estimation model using TMB.

Simply fits a constant (the mean). This is useful as a benchmark for other models.

Usage

constant_tmb(sf, its = 1000, ii = NULL)

Arguments

sf

A simple features object with some geometry.

its

Number of iterations in outer loop optimisation, passed to nlminb.

ii

The (zero-indexed) indices of the observations held-out.

Examples

constant_tmb(mw, its = 100)
#> Error in nrow(sf): object 'mw' not found
