On a Scheme of Sampling of Two Units With Inclusion Probability Proportional to Size
Abstract: This paper introduces an unequal probability sampling without replacement scheme with inclusion probability proportional to size. This new scheme possesses some desirable properties with regard to πi and πij , and provides a non-negative variance estimator of the Horvitz and Thompson estimator, when the values of the auxiliary variable fulfill some restrictions. On comparing the sugge...
متن کاملBayesian Inference under Cluster Sampling with Probability Proportional to Size
Cluster sampling is common in survey practice, and the corresponding inference has been predominantly design-based. We develop a Bayesian framework for cluster sampling and account for the design effect in the outcome modeling. We consider a two-stage cluster sampling design where the clusters are first selected with probability proportional to cluster size, and then units are randomly sampled ...
متن کاملSize constrained unequal probability sampling with a non-integer sum of inclusion probabilities
More than 50 methods have been developed to draw unequal probability samples with fixed sample size. All these methods require the sum of the inclusion probabilities to be an integer number. There are cases, however, where the sum of desired inclusion probabilities is not an integer. Then, classical algorithms for drawing samples cannot be directly applied. We present two methods to overcome th...
متن کاملElection audits by sampling with probability proportional to an error bound: dealing with discrepancies
Sampling items using probability proportional to a bound on the possible error in the item (PPEB) has a long history in financial auditing, but has only recently been suggested for auditing elections. How large a PPEB sample should be drawn to have confidence 1− α that the election outcome is correct if the sample includes only “small” errors? What is the confidence that the outcome of the elec...
متن کاملThe proportionator: Unbiased stereological estimation using biased automatic image analysis and non-uniform probability proportional to size sampling
The proportionator is a novel and radically different approach to sampling with microscopes based on the well-known statistical theory (probability proportional to size-PPS sampling). It uses automatic image analysis, with a large range of options, to assign to every field of view in the section a weight proportional to some characteristic of the structure under study. A typical and very simple...
