On valid descriptive inference from non-probability sample [PDF]
Statistical Theory and Related Fields, 2019 We examine the conditions under which descriptive inference can be based directly on the observed distribution in a non-probability sample, under both the super-population and quasi-randomisation modelling approaches.

An Approach to Integrating a Non-Probability Sample in the Population Census
Mathematics, 2023 Population censuses are increasingly using administrative information and sampling as alternatives to collecting detailed data from individuals. Non-probability samples can also be an additional, relatively inexpensive data source, although they require ...

Combining Non-Probability and Probability Survey Samples Through Mass Imputation [PDF]
Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series A: Statistics in Society, 2021 Abstract Analysis of non-probability survey samples requires auxiliary information at the population level. Such information may also be obtained from an existing probability survey sample from the same finite population. Mass imputation has been used in practice for combining non-probability and probability survey samples and making ...

On using a non-probability sample for the estimation of population parameters
Lietuvos Matematikos Rinkinys, 2023 We aim to find a way to effectively integrate a non-probability (voluntary) sample under the data framework, where the study variable is also observed in a probability sample of some statistical survey.

FlexSketch: Estimation of Probability Density for Stationary and Non-Stationary Data Streams
Sensors, 2021 Efficient and accurate estimation of the probability distribution of a data stream is an important problem in many sensor systems. It is especially challenging when the data stream is non-stationary, i.e., its probability distribution changes over time ...
