Country_and_area_classification The Country and area classification according to the United Nations Standaistical Division, Standard country or area codes for statistical use (M49). Adapted for use in FP2030 by the Track20 project. A subset of data from the United Nations country classifications
country_names The names of the countries with national and subnational administration level data stored
DEFT_DHS_database DEFT_DHS_database A database of the design effects for some of the DHS surveys in the national and subnational datasets. Due to due to multistage and clustering of the DHS sample, the average standard error is increased by a design effect (DEFT) factor over that in an equivalent simple random sample.
get_data Wrapper function that retrieves the DHS data used for modelling the proportion of modern contraceptives supplied by the public and private sectors at the national and subnational administration levels.
get_modelinputs Get JAGS model inputs
get_posterior_P_samps Function to pull the complete posterior sample for the national method-supply share estimates. Functionality for the subnational models is still under development.
get_subnational_modelinputs Get JAGS model inputs
national_estimated_correlations_bivarlogitnormal The estimated national-level correlations between the rates of change in methods
national_FPsource_data DHS survey observations for the proportion of modern contraceptives supplied by the public and private sectors at the national level
national_FPsource_format A checklist for ensuring national-level custom data is appropriate to be used for estimation
national_FPsource_VARCOV_bivarlogitnormal An array of variance-covariance matrices corresponding to the DHS survey observations for the proportion of modern contraceptives supplied by the public and private sectors at the national level
national_inv_sigma_delta_hat_bivarlogitnorm The median estimate for the national-level variance-covariance matrix of the delta.k terms in the multi-country national model.
national_tau_alpha_cms_hat_bivarlogitnorm The median estimates of the precision for the national-level country, sector-, method-specific intercepts in the multi-country national model. This vector is used to inform the precision in the Normal prior of the national-level intercept in single-country national models.
national_theta_rms_hat_bivarlogitnorm The median estimates of the national-level sub-continental, sector-, method-specific intercepts in the multi-country national model. This array is used to inform the Normal prior of the country-level intercept in the single-country national model.
national_varcov_order_bivarlogitnormal The order of observations to join the variance-covariance array data and the DHS survey observations for the proportion of modern contraceptives supplied by the public and private sectors at the national level
plot_estimates Wrapper function to plot the JAGS estimates
pull_estimates Function to pull method-supply share median estimates and credible intervals for a given year and country.
run_jags_model Wrapper function to run the jags model for estimating the proportion of modern contraceptive methods supplied by the public & private Sectors using a Bayesian hierarchical penalized spline model for the national and subnational administration levels
subnational_alpha_cms_hat The median estimates of the subnational-level country, sector-, method-specific intercepts in the multi-country subnational model. This array is used to inform the Normal prior of the subnational-level intercept in the single-country subnational model.
subnational_estimated_correlations The estimated subnational-level correlations between the rates of change in methods
subnational_inv.sigma_delta_hat The median estimate for the subnational-level precision matrix of the delta.k terms in the multi-country subnational model. This array is used to inform the multi-variate normal prior in the single-country subnational model.
subnational_tau_alpha_pms_hat subnational_tau_alpha_pms_hat The median estimates of the precision for the subnational-level country, sector-, method-specific intercepts in the multi-country subnational model. This vector is used to inform the precision in the Normal prior of the subnational-level intercept in single-country subnational models.
subnat_FPsource_data DHS survey observations for the proportion of modern contraceptives supplied by the public and private sectors at the subnational administration level.
subnat_FPsource_format A checklist for ensuring subnational-level custom data is appropriate to be used for estimation
