MCMC Model for Estimation Poverty Risk Factors using Household Budget Data

An important task for analysts of official statistical data is the determination of social risk groups, especially in poverty risk. As the data used in such analyses (Household Income and Expenditures surveys) have rather high non-response rate and may be affected by different sources of errors, the problem of model stability is important. One possibility to check the stability of a model is to use different generation procedures.
