New Techniques for Estimating Finite Population Variance Using Ranks of Auxiliary Variable in Two-Stage Sampling

open access: yesMathematics
This article presents a new set of estimators designed to estimate the finite population variance of a study variable in two-phase sampling. These estimators utilize the information about extreme values and ranks of an auxiliary variable. Through a first-

Variance estimation for sensitivity analysis of poverty and inequality measures

open access: yesSurvey Research Methods, 2017
Estimates of poverty and inequality are often based on application of a single equivalence scale, despite the fact that a large number of different equivalence scales can be found in the literature.

$V$-statistics and Variance Estimation

open access: yesJ. Mach. Learn. Res., 2019
This version supersedes the previous technical report titled "Asymptotic Normality and Variance Estimation For Supervised Ensembles". Extensive simulations are added and we also provide a more detailed discussion on the bias phenomenon in variance ...

A simple variance estimator of change for rotating repeated surveys: an application to the EU-SILC household surveys

open access: yes, 2015
A common problem is to compare two cross-sectional estimates for the same study variable taken on two different waves or occasions, and to judge whether the change observed is statistically significant.

Modified minimax quadratic estimation of variance components [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
summary:The paper deals with modified minimax quadratic estimation of variance and covariance components under full ellipsoidal restrictions. Based on the, so called, linear approach to estimation variance components, i. e.

On the Variance of Estimates

open access: yesThe Annals of Mathematical Statistics, 1949
In this paper recent results on the lower bound to the variance of unbiased estimates have been brought together. Some of them have been extended to sequential estimates and the others have been improved to some extent. In the last section a general method for generating a system of orthogonal polynomials with respect to a certain class of weight ...

European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline and EXPeRT Recommendations for the Diagnosis and Management of Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms in Children and Adolescents

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

Variance estimation using Randomized Response Technique [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The aim of this dissertation is to study the problem of variance estimation for sensitive variables. The problem of variance estimation in the non-sensitive variable case has been well-explored by researchers.

Model-based small area estimation with no samples within the areas, by benchmarking to marginal cross-sectional and time-series estimates

open access: yesStatistical Theory and Related Fields, 2020
Official monthly U.S. labour force estimation at the sub-State level (mostly counties) is based on what is known as the ‘Handbook’ (HB) method, one of the earliest uses of administrative data for small area estimation.
