A sampling plan for residentially generated solid waste quantification at urban zones of middle sized cities

open access: yesRevista Facultad de Ingeniería Universidad de Antioquia, 2013
We propose a sampling plan intended for medium size cities. The proposed plan begins with a two-stage pilot plan, which helped us to obtain a better estimation of the final sample size when a ratio estimator is used.

Retrieval of among-stand variances from one observation per stand

open access: yesJournal of Forest Science, 2020
Forest inventories provide predictions of stand means on a routine basis from models with auxiliary variables from remote sensing as predictors and response variables from field data.

ROI-Based LiDAR Sampling Algorithm in on-Road Environment for Autonomous Driving

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
As the acquisition of laser range measurements such as those from light detection and ranging (LiDAR) sensors requires a considerable amount of time, to design an effective sampling algorithm is a critical task in numerous laser range applications.

Two-stage cluster sampling with unequal probability sampling in the first stage and ranked set sampling in the second stage [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
In this research work we introduce a new sampling design, namely a two-stage cluster sampling, where probability proportional to size with replacement is used in the first stage unit and ranked set sampling in the second in order to address the issue of ...

Estimation of Some Proportion in a Clustered Population

open access: yesNonlinear Analysis, 2009
The aim of this paper is to show that the traditional design-based estimator for the proportion of population units, associated with at least one subunit having an attribute of interest using the two-stage sampling design, is biased.

Composite samples in environmental studies

open access: yesActa Agriculturae Slovenica, 1998
In ecological studies, bulk material such as soil, water, plant material etc. is commonly investigated. An important feature of bulk sampling is the possibility of physical mixing of initial increments of material into a composite sample.

A survey of potential sampling strategies for measurement of structured surfaces. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Uniform sampling is the predominant sampling method for surface measuring instruments. However, measurement for structured surfaces brings an increasingly serious conflict between sampling range and small resolution.

Using Judgment Post Stratification in Two Stage Cluster Sampling

open access: yesپژوهش‌های ریاضی, 2021
The judgment post stratification is a method of stratification of observation by using a key variable, such that stratification will be done after selecting the sample. In this paper, this method will use in two stage cluster sampling.

Design and implementation of a high-quality probability sample of immigrants and ethnic minorities: Lessons learnt

open access: yesDemographic Research, 2018
Background: Surveys of immigrants face challenges of coverage, representativeness, and response rates. Longitudinal studies of immigrants and ethnic minorities, which have potential to address pressing issues in demographic research, are rare or partial.

On Two-Stage Sampling

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 1951
Summary Some interesting results in the theory of two-stage sampling are presented. These follow a simple proposition in probability which facilitates further deductions.
