Study of Dual to Ratio-Cum-Product Estimator of Finite Population Mean under Double Sampling in Sample Surveys [PDF]
A class of estimator based on dual to ratio and dual to product-type estimator in double sampling for estimating finite population mean is proposed. The bias and mean square error of the proposed estimator are obtained in two different cases.

A publication bias has been argued to affect the fate of results in bilingualism research. It was repeatedly suggested that studies presenting evidence for bilingual advantages are more likely to be published compared to studies that do not report results in favor of the bilingual advantage hypothesis.

Higher Order Bias Correcting Moment Equation for M-Estimation and Its Higher Order Efficiency
This paper studies an alternative bias correction for the M-estimator, which is obtained by correcting the moment equations in the spirit of Firth (1993).

A new exponential estimator for finite population mean under double sampling using one auxiliary variable [PDF]
This paper proposes an exponential estimator of a population mean under double sampling using one auxiliary variable. The proposed estimator is modified from the estimator of Khatua and Misha (2013) and Ozgul and Cingi (2014).

Direct Reduction of Bias of the Classical Hill Estimator
In this paper we are interested in an adequate estimation of the dominant component of the bias of Hill’s estimator of a positive tail index γ, in order to remove it from the classical Hill estimator in different asymptotically equivalent ways.

Reducing effects of dispersal on the bias of 2-sample mark-recapture estimators of stream fish abundance. [PDF]
The 2-sample mark-recapture method with Chapman's estimator is often used by inland fishery managers to estimate the reach-scale abundance of stream fish.

Sousa and Michailidis (2004) developed the sum plot based on the Hill (1975) estimator as a diagnostic tool for selecting the optimal k when the distribution is heavy tailed.

Redshift is a key quantity for inferring cosmological model parameters. In photometric redshift estimation, cosmologists use the coarse data collected from the vast majority of galaxies to predict the redshift of individual galaxies. To properly quantify the uncertainty in the predictions, however, one needs to go beyond standard regression and instead

This paper proposes an estimator for population proportion p possessing sensitive attribute under unknown repeated trials model envisaged by Singh and Joarder (1997). The exact bias and mean square error of the proposed estimators are worked out.

Assessment of sample frequency bias and precision in fluvial flux calculations – An improved low bias estimation method [PDF]
Summary Despite the importance of calculating the flux of solutes and particulates through the global fluvial network the number of studies that have considered the bias and precision of any method is limited. Furthermore, no study has, on the basis of the bias of the method, proposed new methods with a lower bias nor considered the implications of ...
