Simple House Needs in Jember with Robust Small Area Estimation

open access: yesJurnal Ilmu Dasar, 2017
SAE (Small Area Estimation) is often used by researchers, especially statisticians to estimate parameters of a subpopulation which has a small sample size.

Small area estimation of child undernutrition in Ethiopian woredas. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Reducing child undernutrition is a key social policy objective of the Ethiopian government. Despite substantial reduction over the last decade and a half, child undernutrition is still high; with 48 percent of children either stunted, underweight or ...

Estimating Small Area Income Deprivation: An Iterative Proportional Fitting Approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Small area estimation and in particular the estimation of small area income deprivation has potential value in the development of new or alternative components of multiple deprivation indices.

Multivariate small area estimation under nonignorable nonresponse

open access: yesStatistical Theory and Related Fields, 2019
We consider multivariate small area estimation under nonignorable, not missing at random (NMAR) nonresponse. We assume a response model that accounts for the different patterns of the observed outcomes, (which values are observed and which ones are ...

An Asymmetric Area Model-Based Approach for Small Area Estimation Applied to Survey Data

open access: yesRevstat Statistical Journal, 2021
The Birnbaum–Saunders distribution is asymmetrical and has received considerable attention due to its properties and its relationship with the normal distribution. In this paper, we propose a methodology for estimating the mean of small areas based on a

Weighting and imputation comparison in small area estimation

open access: yesLietuvos Matematikos Rinkinys, 2010
In this paper, different methods of nonresponse adjustment for the totals of small area domains are examined. To improve quality of estimations linear model with random parameters at domain level is used.

Precise and unbiased biomass estimation from GEDI data and the US Forest Inventory

open access: yesFrontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2023
Atmospheric CO2 concentrations are dependent on land-atmosphere carbon fluxes resultant from forest dynamics and land-use changes. These fluxes are not well-constrained, in part because reliable baseline estimates of forest carbon stocks and the ...

Small area estimation in the case of nonesponse

open access: yesLietuvos Matematikos Rinkinys, 2009
In this paper the effect of model and nonresponseadjustment on different types of estimators for the totals of small area domains is examined. The empirical results are based on Monte Carlo simulations with repeated samples drawn from a finite population

Small Area Estimation with Linked Data [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 2020
AbstractData linkage can be used to combine values of the variable of interest from a national survey with values of auxiliary variables obtained from another source, such as a population register, for use in small area estimation. However, linkage errors can induce bias when fitting regression models; moreover, they can create non-representative ...

Benchmarking small area estimators [PDF]

open access: yesBiometrika, 2012
This paper considers benchmarking issues in the context of small area estimation. We find optimal estimators within the class of benchmarked linear estimators under linear constraints. This extends existing results for external and internal benchmarking, and also links the two.
