Seminar: “Quantifying Environmental Justice through Models of Time Series of Counts”
Abstract: Environmental justice (EJ) advocates equal protection against environmental and public health risks. Despite its relevance, objective metrics to quantify EJ are limited. We propose a statistical framework to define and estimate EJ indicators, grounded in count time series models. Specifically, the daily number of hospital admissions is modeled using INGARCH models with environmental covariates. […]
