Effective Auxiliary Variables via Structured Reencoding
CoRR, 2023 Extended resolution shows that auxiliary variables are very powerful in theory. However, attempts to exploit this potential in practice have had limited success. One reasonably effective method in this regard is bounded variable addition (BVA), which automatically reencodes formulas by introducing new variables and eliminating clauses, often ...

Multiple Auxiliary Variables in Nonresponse Adjustment
Sociological Methods & Research, 2011 Prior work has shown that effective survey nonresponse adjustment variables should be highly correlated with both the propensity to respond to a survey and the survey variables of interest. In practice, propensity models are often used for nonresponse adjustment with multiple auxiliary variables as predictors.

Re-using Auxiliary Variables for MaxSAT Preprocessing [PDF]
2015 IEEE 27th International Conference on Tools with Artificial Intelligence (ICTAI), 2015 Solvers for the maximum satisfiability (MaxSAT) problem -- a well-known optimization variant of Boolean satisfiability (SAT) -- are finding an increasing number of applications. Preprocessing has proven an integral part of the SAT-based approach to efficiently solving various types of real-world problem instances.

A note on transformations on auxiliary variable in survey sampling [PDF]
Model Assisted Statistics and Applications, 2011 In this note, we address the doubts of Singh [12] and Gupta and Shabbir [1] on the transformations of auxiliary variables by adding unit free constants. The original contribution by Sisodia and Dwivedi [15] is correct.

A Class of Exponential Regression Type Estimators for Population Variance in Two-Phase Sampling [PDF]
Journal of Statistical Theory and Applications (JSTA), 2017 This article deals with the problems of efficient estimation of population variance in two-phase (double) sampling. Using information on two auxiliary variables, a class of chain exponential to regression type estimators has been proposed and its ...

Bayesian auxiliary variable models for binary and multinomial regression [PDF]
, 2006 In this paper we discuss auxiliary variable approaches to Bayesian binary and multinomial regression. These approaches are ideally suited to automated Markov chain Monte Carlo simulation.
