plug in semiparametric estimating equations [PDF]
In parametric regression problems, estimation of the parameter of interest is typically achieved via the solution of a set of unbiased estimating equations. We are interested in problems where in addition to this parameter, the estimating equations consist of an unknown nuisance function which does not depend on the parameter.

Introduction: Solar radiation on the earth surface has a wide range of applications in hydrology, agriculture and meteorology. Solar radiation is an important parameter of estimated models of reference crop potential evapotranspiration such as the Penman–

New prediction models for gross energy of pig urine using urinary nitrogen concentration and body weight: technical note [PDF]
The objectives were to evaluate previous equations for estimating gross energy (GE) of pig urine using urinary nitrogen (N) and to develop novel equations for estimating GE concentrations of pig urine. A total of 136 urine samples were obtained from pigs

Parameter Estimation Based on Cumulative Kullback–Leibler Divergence
In this paper, we propose some estimators for the parameters of a statistical model based on Kullback–Leibler divergence of the survival function in continuous setting and apply it to type I censored data.

The unpredictably eruptive dynamics of spruce budworm populations in eastern Canada
We examine historical population data for spruce budworm from several locations through the period 1930–1997, and use density‐dependent recruitment curves to test whether the pattern of population growth over time is more consistent with Royama's (1984; Ecological Monographs 54:429–462) linear R(t) model of harmonic oscillation at Green River New ...

The Structure of Simultaneous Equations Estimators
AbstractOptimal estimation is necessary for empirical modelling, but can be summarized in an estimator generating equation (EGE). The EGE reduces a vast literature on estimating individual equations and linear simultaneous systems to a single, simple expression based on the ‘score’, namely, the first derivative of the log‐likelihood function for full ...

Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks
Habitat patches connected by dispersal pathways form habitat networks. We explored how network topology affects population outcomes in laboratory experiments using a model species (Daphnia carinata). Central habitat nodes in complex lattice networks exhibited lower temporal variability in population sizes, suggesting they support more stable ...

Computational algebraic methods in efficient estimation
A strong link between information geometry and algebraic statistics is made by investigating statistical manifolds which are algebraic varieties. In particular it it shown how first and second order efficient estimators can be constructed, such as bias ...

Solving some special cases of monomial ratio equations appearing frequently in physical and engineering problems [PDF]
We first show that monomial ratio equations are not only very common in Physics and Engineering, but the natural type of equations in many practical problems. More precisely, in the case of models involving scale variables if the used formulas are not of
