Estimating catch-at-age by combining data from different sources
Estimating the catch-at-age of commercial fish species is an important part of the quota-setting process for many different species and almost all countries with a fishing fleet. Current procedures are usually very timeconsuming and somewhat ad hoc, and the estimates have no measure of uncertainty. We previously developed a method for catch-at-age of Norwegian Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua), but t...
متن کاملEstimation of age-specific breeding probabilities from capture-recapture data.
We provide a new method for estimating the age-specific breeding probabilities from recaptures or resightings of animals marked as young. Our method is more direct than previous methods and allows the modeler to fit and compare models where the age-specific breeding proportions are equal over different cohorts or are a function of external covariates.
متن کاملEstimating age conditional probability of developing disease from surveillance data
Fay, Pfeiffer, Cronin, Le, and Feuer (Statistics in Medicine 2003; 22; 1837-1848) developed a formula to calculate the age-conditional probability of developing a disease for the first time (ACPDvD) for a hypothetical cohort. The novelty of the formula of Fay et al (2003) is that one need not know the rates of first incidence of disease per person-years alive and disease-free, but may input the...
متن کاملEstimating allele age and selection coefficient from time-serial data.
Recent advances in sequencing technologies have made available an ever-increasing amount of ancient genomic data. In particular, it is now possible to target specific single nucleotide polymorphisms in several samples at different time points. Such time-series data are also available in the context of experimental or viral evolution. Time-series data should allow for a more precise inference of...
متن کاملConstructing estimating equations from queue length data
In this paper we consider the problem of estimating the parameters of a Markov queueing model from discrete time observations of the queue length. The proposed approach is an application of the martingale estimating function methodology which has been used extensively in mathematical finance. A small simulation study suggests that the estimator performs well, even for moderate sample size, and ...
