Stein ’ s Unbiased Risk Estimate Statistical Machine Learning , Spring 2015
1 Stein’s lemma • In a landmark paper, Stein (1981) derived a beautiful and simple lemma about the standard normal distribution. Indeed, Stein knew of this result much earlier and wrote about it in previous papers, but in Stein (1981), the author developed a multivariate extension of this lemma that led to a remarkable result on unbiased risk estimation. (And, an interesting note: the paper Ste...
متن کاملOverview of the sampling design and statistical methods used in the National Immunization Survey.
Abstract: The National Immunization Survey (NIS) is a large federally funded survey designed to estimate vaccination coverage rates for children residing in the United States aged 19 to 35 months. In 1999, over 8 million telephone call attempts were made to obtain provider-reported vaccination histories on 22,521 children in the age range of interest.
متن کاملStatistical Properties of Mean Stand Biomass Estimators in a Lidar- Based Double Sampling Forest Survey Design
Airborne laser scanning (lidar) can be a valuable tool in double-sampling forest survey designs. Lidar-derived forest structure metrics are often highly correlated with important forest inventory variables, such as mean stand biomass, and lidar-based synthetic regression estimators have the potential to be highly efficient compared to single-stage estimators, which could lead to increased preci...
متن کاملStatistical Learning In Sample Design
A well-designed sampling plan can greatly enhance the information that can be produced from a survey. Once a broad sample design is identified, specific design parameters such as sample sizes and selection probabilities need to be chosen. This is typically achieved using an optimal sample design, which minimises the variance of a key statistic or statistics, expressed as a function of design pa...
متن کاملUnbiased sampling of network ensembles
Sampling random graphs with given properties is a key step in the analysis of networks, as random ensembles represent basic null models required to identify patterns such as communities and motifs. A key requirement is that the sampling process is unbiased and efficient. The main approaches are microcanonical, i.e. they sample graphs that exactly match the enforced constraints. Unfortunately, w...
