Efficient Sample Location Selection for Query Zone in Geo-Social Networks
Complexity, 2021 While promoting a business or activity in geo-social networks, the geographical distance between its location and users is critical. Therefore, the problem of Distance-Aware Influence Maximization (DAIM) has been investigated recently.

Semiparametric location estimation under non‐random sampling [PDF]
Stat, 2012 We study a class of semiparametric skewed distributions arising when the sample selection process produces non‐randomly sampled observations. Based on semiparametric theory and taking into account the symmetric nature of the population distribution, we propose both consistent estimators, i.e. robust to model mis‐specification, and efficient estimators,

CONTROL BY SAMPLE LOCATION IN PIGEONS' MATCHING TO SAMPLE [PDF]
Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 1998 Three experiments assessed the impact of sample location in pigeons' matching to sample. Experiments 1 and 2 demonstrated that after line or hue identity matching was acquired to high levels of accuracy with center‐key samples, varying sample location across the three keys disrupted performances.
