shrinking small-area disease rates toward an overall mean in proportion to their instability, so that maps are not dominated by areas with few cases.

In health geography, empirical Bayes disease mapping refers to shrinking small-area disease rates toward an overall mean in proportion to their instability, so that maps are not dominated by areas with few cases. This meaning comes from Clayton (1987) in Biometrics.[1]
