The multivariate normal regression model, in which a vector y of responses is to be predicted by a vector x of explanatory variables, is considered. A hierarchical framework is used to express prior information on both x and y. An empirical Bayes estimator is developed which shrinks the maximum like

Parametric empirical Bayes (PEB) may perform poorly when the assumed prior distribution is seriously invalid. Nonparametric empirical Bayes (NEB) is more robust since it imposes no restriction on the prior. But compared with the PEB, the NEB may be ine cient for small to medium samples, due to the l

## Abstract Mapping of small area mortality (or incidence) risks is a widely used technique in public health research. The standardized mortality ratio (SMR) is a common direct index of disease mortality, but it might be very inaccurate in areas or counties with low population. Hence, the use of mo
