  <dc:title>Hierarchical Bayesian Area-Level Small Area Estimation Models</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package hbsaems version 1.1.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Fits area-level Hierarchical Bayesian Small Area Estimation
    models. The methodological foundation follows the standard area-level
    Small Area Estimation literature, primarily Rao and Molina (2015,
    ISBN: 9781118735787) &lt;doi:10.1002/9781118735855&gt;, while computational
    implementation is adapted to the parameterisation and
    prior-specification conventions of the 'brms' package
    &lt;doi:10.18637/jss.v080.i01&gt;, which targets the
    Stan back-end. Supports a principled Bayesian workflow
    &lt;doi:10.48550/arXiv.2011.01808&gt;, with prior
    predictive checks, convergence diagnostics, model comparison,
    spatial random effects, custom distributions, missing-data
    handling, and a bilingual 'shiny' application for non-programmer
    analysts.</dc:description>
