Abstract

We introduce a new latent variable model with count variable indicators, where usual linear parametric effects of covariates, nonparametric effects of continuous covariates and spatial effects on the continuous latent variables are modelled through a geoadditive predictor. Bayesian modelling of nonparametric functions and spatial effects is based on penalized spline and Markov random field priors. Full Bayesian inference is performed via an auxiliary variable Gibbs sampling technique, using a
