Parameter Estimation based on Neoteric Ranked Set Samples with Applications to Weibull Distribution. [PDF]
This paper investigates the parameter estimation in a Weibull distribution using Neoteric Ranked Set Sampling (NRSS) designs, thus extending the earlier study by Sabry et al. (2020).

Empirical likelihood confidence intervals for complex sampling designs
We define an empirical likelihood approach which gives consistent design-based confidence intervals which can be calculated without the need of variance estimates, design effects, resampling, joint inclusion probabilities and linearization, even when the

T1 Over Squared Proton Density Ratio to Characterize Multiple Sclerosis Lesions
ABSTRACT Objective Differentiating remyelinated from demyelinated lesions in MS remains challenging without histological confirmation. This study introduces the T1‐to‐PD2 ratio (TPR) imaging approach and evaluates its ability to characterize MS lesions alongside other quantitative MRI (qMRI) metrics. Methods Thirty individuals with MS (mean age: 47.5 ±

Composite Estimators for the Population Mean Under Ranked Set Sampling
Ranked Set Sampling (RSS) is an effective sampling technique, particularly when precise measurement of the study variable is costly or time-consuming, but ranking the units is relatively easy.

Summary Given a finite population consisting of N units, it is desired to have a confidence interval for the (t/N)th quantile, Y (t), of the population. Assuming simple random sampling, a confidence interval procedure is suggested and several expressions for the associated confidence coefficient are given.

Nested sampling for Potts models
Nested sampling is a new Monte Carlo method by Skilling [1] intended for general Bayesian computation. Nested sampling provides a robust alternative to annealing-based methods for computing normalizing constants.

CAN SIMPLE RANDOM SAMPLING CONFIDENCE INTERVALS BE USED ON TRANSECT SAMPLING DATA?
When sampling geographic regions, transect sampling may be easier and cheaper than simple random sampling. However, transect sampling data is more difficult to analyze.

ABSTRACT Objectives Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) is the most common etiology of drug‐resistant epilepsy in children. Focal to bilateral tonic–clonic seizures (FBTCS) mark a high risk of drug‐resistant epilepsy and involve thalamocortical circuitry in their generation and propagation.

Evaluating Sampling Methods for Content Analysis of Twitter Data
Despite the existing evaluation of the sampling options for periodical media content, only a few empirical studies have examined whether probability sampling methods can be applicable to social media content other than simple random sampling.

Exact methods for comparison of estimation strategies in survey sampling.
PhDMany strategies in survey sampling depend on large sample approximation formulae for design-based inference on finite population parameters, which are not valid for small samples. We develop an approach using matrix algebra to tackle many problems
