Mathematical Programming on Multivariate Calibration Estimation in Stratified Sampling
Calibration estimation is a method of adjusting the original design weights to improve the survey estimates by using auxiliary information such as the known population total (or mean) of the auxiliary variables. A calibration estimator uses calibrated weights that are determined to minimize a given distance measure to the original design weights while satisfying a set of constraints related to ...
متن کاملA Pseudo Empirical Likelihood Approach for Stratified Samples with Nonresponse
Nonresponse is common in surveys. When the response probability of a survey variable Y depends on Y through an observed auxiliary categorical variable Z (i.e., the response probability of Y is conditionally independent of Y given Z), a simple method often used in practice is to use Z categories as imputation cells and construct estimators by imputing nonrespondents or reweighting respondents wi...
متن کاملDesign of single-sampling inspection-plan approach by mathematical programming and linear assignment method
This study proposes a new approach for single-sampling plan by determining sample size and acceptance number. The proposed approach is based on a two-step methodology. In the first step: quality management step, different single sampling inspection plans were generated by running an optimization model for different possible acceptance numbers. While, in the second step: Multi-Attribute Decision...
متن کاملEvolutionary Programming Based Stratified Design Space Sampling
Recently there have been advances in strati ed sampling techniques that attempt to enforce equal distributions not only across the design variables, but also onto the design space itself. This requires a numerically intensive optimization routine. Until now, no optimization strategy was able to distribute sample points evenly in the design space, but Evolutionary Algorithms (EA) act as an enabl...
متن کاملCalibration approach estimators in stratified sampling
Calibration is commonly used in survey sampling to include auxiliary information to increase the precision of the estimates of population parameter. In this paper, we newly propose various calibration approach ratio estimators and derive the estimator of the variance of the calibration approach ratio estimators in stratified sampling. r 2006 Elsevier B.V.
