Ecological Inference via Information Theory
Estimates RxC transfer matrices from aggregated marginal data using a two-stage (GME+IPF) information-theoretic approach within a two-step (global+local) estimation procedure. The resulting matrices are consistent with observed row and column marginals across collections of subtables (e.g. precincts, polling stations, or districts).
