Main challenges in the identification and measurement of indirect costs in projects: a multiple case study [PDF]
Gestão & Produção, 2020 Projects have direct and indirect costs; the direct ones are easily identified and quantified, the indirect ones are difficult to control, because they are generated in favor of more than one project, and even if they are not directly related to the ...

Estimating Functions in Indirect Inference
Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 2004 SummaryThere are models for which the evaluation of the likelihood is infeasible in practice. For these models the Metropolis–Hastings acceptance probability cannot be easily computed. This is the case, for instance, when only departure times from a G/G/1 queue are observed and inference on the arrival and service distributions are required.

Mean Ages at Parities: An Indirect Estimation [PDF]
The Pakistan Development Review, 1995 This paper is the outcome of a continuous concern that some of the basic demographic estimates provided by successive surveys in the country do not fulfil the expectation of use at their face value. In a previous paper, an indirect assessment of the birth rates from these surveys was made on the basis of internal consistency of ...
