On use of adaptive cluster sampling for variance estimation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Statistics
Adaptive cluster sampling is particularly helpful whenever the target population is unique, dispersed unevenly, concealed or difficult to find. In the current investigation, under an adaptive cluster sampling approach, we propose a ratio-product-logarithmic type estimator employing a single auxiliary variable for the estimation of finite population ...

Modified Adaptive Cluster Sampling Designs [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications for Statistical Applications and Methods, 2007
Adaptive cluster sampling design is known as a sampling method for rare clustered population. Three modified adaptive cluster sampling designs are proposed. The adjusted Hansen-Hurwitz estimator and the Horvitz-Thompson estimator are considered. Efficiency issue of the proposed sampling designs is discussed in a Monte-Carlo simulation study.

Partial systematic adaptive cluster sampling

open access: yesEnvironmetrics, 2012
A main benefit from taking a systematic sample is the ease of implementation when field sampling. However, it is not uncommon for a researcher to sample only one primary sampling unit (PSU) but to assume that the secondary sampling units (SSUs) were selected by simple random sampling to obtain a variance estimate.

Adaptive two-stage inverse sampling design to estimate density, abundance, and occupancy of rare and clustered populations.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Sampling rare and clustered populations is challenging because of the effort required to find rare units. Heuristically, a practitioner would prefer to discontinue sampling in areas where rare units of interest are apparently extremely sparse or absent ...

Efficiency of adaptive cluster sampling and traditional sampling for coastal mangrove in Hainan of China

open access: yesJournal of Forest Science, 2012
Based on two species of Coastal Mangrove in Hainan of China, Sonneratia Apetala Buch-Ham and Sonneratia caseoli, we estimated the density of the two species to evaluate the efficiency of adaptive cluster sampling (ACS), simple random sampling (SRS) and ...

DisSAGD: A Distributed Parameter Update Scheme Based on Variance Reduction

open access: yesSensors, 2021
Machine learning models often converge slowly and are unstable due to the significant variance of random data when using a sample estimate gradient in SGD.

On two-stage adaptive cluster sampling to assess pest density

open access: yes浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2000
The adaptive cluster sampling introduced by Thompson is a powerful method for a survey of a population which is highly clumped with clumps widely separated.

Inventory of sparse forest populations using adaptive cluster sampling

open access: yesSilva Fennica, 2006
In many studies, adaptive cluster sampling (ACS) proved to be a powerful tool for assessing rare clustered populations that are difficult to estimate by means of conventional sampling methods.
