Combining information from multiple surveys through the empirical likelihood method
It is often desirable to combine information collected in compatible multiple surveys in order to improve estimation and meet consistency requirements. Zieschang (1990) and Renssen & Nieuwenbroek (1997) suggested to this end the use of the generalized regression estimator with enlarged number of auxiliary variables. Unfortunately, adjusted weights associated with their approach can be negative....
متن کاملCombining Information from Independent Sources through Confidence Distributions
This paper develops new methodology, together with related theories, for combining information from independent studies through confidence distributions. A formal definition of a confidence distribution and its asymptotic counterpart (i.e., asymptotic confidence distribution) are given and illustrated in the context of combining information. Two general combination methods are developed: the fi...

متن کاملCombining Information from Diverse Sources
Research synthesis plays a central role in the process of scientific discovery, providing a formal methodology for the systematic accumulation and evaluation of scientific evidence. There are many situations in which research synthesis is required because obtaining the required information from an individual trial is not possible or practical. This thesis proposes a general method to synthesize...
متن کاملCombining Incomplete Information From Independent Assessment Surveys for Estimating Masonry Deterioration
Construction materials used in building structures, such as masonry, wood, and reinforced concrete, deteriorate over time because of many factors including poor design, defective materials or manufacture, and poor workmanship. This article is concerned with estimates of masonry deterioration and the effects of covariates on the damage to bricks on the walls of ve multiple-story buildings of a...
