Selection, covariance, and Malmquist bias
The Astrophysical Journal, 1993 The correction for Malmquist bias is generally thought to have the form αΔ 2 , where Δ is the rms fractional error for a given distance indicator and α is a numerical coefficient which depends on the galaxy distribution and other aspects of the problem.

Evaluating target achievements in the public sector: An application or a rare non-parametric DEA and Malmquist indices [PDF]
This paper provides an assessment of the extent to which targets set by a public authority are achieved by its operational units. A rare DEA framework and its subsequent Malmquist indices are applied on data comprising 19 units over a four year period of

The matter distribution in the local Universe as derived from galaxy groups in SDSS DR12 and 2MRS
, 2016 Context. Friends-of-friends algorithms are a common tool to detect galaxy groups and clusters in large survey data. In order to be as precise as possible, they have to be carefully calibrated using mock catalogues. Aims.

Biases in Virial Black Hole Masses: An SDSS Perspective
, 2008 We compile black hole (BH) masses for $\sim 60,000$ quasars in the redshift range $0.1 \lesssim z \lesssim 4.5$ included in the Fifth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), using virial BH mass estimators based on the \hbeta, \MgII, and ...
