Click, collect, compare: Evaluating a nonprobability web survey for family demography [PDF]
Demographic ResearchBACKGROUND: High-quality population data are expensive to collect and limited in substantive scope, constraining timely and innovative research. OBJECTIVE: We evaluate nonprobability data from the KINMATRIX survey by comparing it with external data on ...

Parametric Weighting Functions [PDF]
This paper provides behavioral foundations for parametric weighting functions under rankdependent utility. This is achieved by decomposing the independence axiom of expected utility into separate meaningful properties.

Parameter recovery of prior weighting.
, 2022 Fig A. Parameter recovery of prior weighting. (A) Data-generating prior weighting plotted against the estimated (i.e., recovered) prior weighting. The diagonal (identity) line represents perfect parameter recovery.

Maximiser la représentativité de groupes dans un échantillonnage spatial
Cybergeo, 2002 The crucial problem of representativeness of a sample when realizing a survey, is considered through getting the best chances to avoid getting cases too close to the boundaries of other groups.

Insurance and Probability Weighting Functions [PDF]
Evidence shows that (i) people overweight low probabilities and underweight high probabilities, but (ii) ignore events of extremely low probability and treat extremely high probability events as certain.

Application of Multi-Valued Weighting Logical Functions in the Analysis of a Degree of Importance of Construction Parameters on the Example of Hydraulic Valves [PDF]
, 2014 In the optimization process, changes in the construction parameters value influence the behaviour of functions depending on time. Weighting logical coefficients for the stabilisation time are taken into consideration here, i.e., a shorter (better ...

UAV-Based SAR-Imaging of Objects From Arbitrary Trajectories Using Weighted Backprojection
IEEE Journal of MicrowavesSynthetic aperture radars (SARs) based on uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs) are advantageous in comparison to existing airborne systems. Apart from cost, their main advantage is the flexibility of their flight path.

Weighted means and weighting functions
Kybernetika, 2006 Summary: We present some properties of mixture and generalized mixture operators with special stress on their monotonicity. We introduce new sufficient conditions for weighting functions to ensure the monotonicity of the corresponding operators. However, mixture operators, generalized mixture operators neither quasi-arithmetic means weighted by a ...
