چکیده
In previously published articles, our research group has developed the Haphazard Intentional Sampling method and compared it to Rerandomization proposed by K.Morgan D.Rubin. this article, we compare both methods pure randomization used for Epicovid19 survey, conducted estimate SARS-CoV-2 prevalence in 133 Brazilian Municipalities. We show that intentional sampling can either substantially reduce operating costs achieve same estimation errors or, other way around, improve precision using sample sizes.

Importance Sampling via Variational Optimization
Computing the exact likelihood of data in large Bayesian networks consisting of thousands of vertices is often a difficult task. When these models contain many deterministic conditional probability tables and when the observed values are extremely unlikely even alternative algorithms such as variational methods and stochastic sampling often perform poorly. We present a new importance sampling a...
متن کاملA New Markov Chain Based Acceptance Sampling Policy via the Minimum Angle Method
We develop an optimization model based on Markovian approach to determine the optimum value of thresholds in a proposed acceptance sampling design. Consider an acceptance sampling plan where items are inspected and when the number of conforming items between successive defective items falls below a lower control threshold value, then the batch is rejected, and if it falls above a control thresh...
متن کاملHaphazard Intentional Allocation and Rerandomization to Improve Covariate Balance in Experiments
In randomized experiments, a single random allocation can yield groups that differ meaningfully with respect to a given covariate. Furthermore, it is unfeasible to control the allocation with respect to a moderate number of covariates. As a response to this problem, Morgan and Rubin [1, 2] proposed an approach based on rerandomization to ensure that the final allocation obtained is balanced. Ho...

Most inductive learning systems generate complete and consistent descriptions. In order to achieve completeness and consistency in the presence of noise or imprecision. one may generate overly complex and detailed descriptions. Such descriptions. however. may not perform well in future cases and suffer the disadvantage of excessive complexity. This is th~ well known phenomenon of overfining, In...
متن کاملOptimization strategy for parameter sampling in the reduced basis method
The reduced basis (RB) method is an efficient technique to solve parametric partial differential equations in a multi-query context, where the solution has to be computed for many different parameter values. The RB method drastically reduces the computational time for any additional solution (during the so-called online stage) once an initial set of basis functions has been computed (during the...
