Estimating Regional Income Indicators under Transformations and Access to Limited Population Auxiliary Information

Estimating the Population Mean in Stratified Population using Auxiliary Information under Non-Response

Use of Auxiliary Information for Estimating Population Mean in Systematic Sampling under Non- Response

Estimating Document Similarity using Auxiliary Category Information

We have developed a novel approach to determine the similarity of documents using probabilistic latent semantic indexing. For each document a probability vector of latent factors is estimated which on the one hand takes into account the distribution of words in the text and on the other hand the distribution of category values. The emphasis can be freely shifted between both aspects and therefo...

Superficial Burn Wound Healing with Intermittent Negative Pressure Wound Therapy Under Limited Access and Conventional Dressings

BACKGROUND Thermal injury is associated with several biochemical and histopathological alteration in tissue. Analysis of these objective parameters in research and clinical field are common to determine healing rate of burn wound. Negative pressure wound therapy has been achieved wide success in treating chronic wounds. This study determines superficial burn wound healing with intermittent n...

Learning under limited information

We study how human subjects learn under extremely limited information. We use Chen’s (forthcoming) data on cost sharing games, and Van Huyck et al.’s (1996, Manuscript) data on coordination games to compare three payoff-based learning models. Under the serial mechanism and coordination games, the payoff-assessment learning model (Sarin and Vahid, 1999, Games Econ. Behav. 28, 294–309) tracks the...
